The 10 Biggest Mistakes You Can Make After A Car Accident:

3. FAIL TO COLLECT EVIDENCE AT THE ACCIDENT SCENE. Don't assume that the police will talk to every witness or that all of the witnesses will wait around for the police to show up. If you are able, write down the names, addresses and telephone numbers of all witnesses who stopped to assist you. Also take a few photos with your cell phone if you are able. Skid marks, collision debris in the road, and damage to the other car are often hard to get and easily lost if not captured right away. 10 Biggest Mistakes

Wrong-way car on 99

The Modesto Bee

Monday, Jun. 28, 2010

A wrong-way driver caused a six-vehicle smashup on Highway 99 on Saturday night that sent seven people to the hospital and closed the northbound lanes for about two hours.

The California Highway Patrol said the driver was under the influence of alcohol as he drove south in the northbound lanes. His 2001 Chevrolet Silverado hit an oncoming 2003 Lexus and rolled multiple times, striking several vehicles. Read More

Mistake #4. Tell The Other Driver That You Are "Okay"

Even if the other driver is very nice, and appologetic, do not tell him or her that you are Okay.  Tell them of any complaints that you have no matter how small, or don't talk to them at all if you can get their contact information from the police or otherwise.  Tell them if you are "shaken up" or have a headache or feel stiff.  Any of those is better than telling them that you are fine when you are not.  Anything you say is admissible against you.  If you report that you are "Ok" or "not hurt" that is the first thing that the other driver will report to his/her insurance company, and that is a statement that you will hear them testify at trial that you said.  Many soft-tissues swell over night after an accident, and you may feel awful the next morning after an accident that you thought did not injure you.

LAPD Involved in Big Rig Accident

"A preliminary investigation revealed that a Los Angeles police officer may have briefly fallen asleep before his cruiser collided with a big rig truck parked illegally in South Los Angeles, authorities said today.

The officer and his partner were both hospitalized following the 6:24 a.m. accident at 35th and Western streets, officials said.

Firefighters had to cut the roof off the police cruiser to extricate one officer from the vehicle. Officials said the big rig was parked illegally when the cruiser hit it, sliding under the trailer."
