Check for Injuries and Call 911: In several counties across Texas, some police departments may not immediately respond to car accidents. Do your best to insist that they come out and document the scene. When it is time to deal with the insurance companies, you will be glad to have an official police report.
Exchange Insurance Information: Do your best to exchange insurance information with all other drivers involved. Emotions can be high after an accident, but remain calm and respectful so they are more likely to cooperate. If you are unable to get their insurance information directly, it will be included in the police report, although that could take up to two weeks to be available.
Take Plenty of Pictures: Make sure to take multiple photos of every vehicle involved in the accident, not just your own. Photos help tell the full story of what happened and can be critical when determining who is responsible.
