Car accident—
what do I do next?

Start with safety, documentation and the correct official or insurance path. This guide is orientation, not legal advice.

Injury or immediate danger?

Call 911 for emergencies. Move out of active traffic when it is safe and follow law-enforcement instructions.

Work through the next decision.

01Make the scene safe

Check for injuries, avoid creating another collision, and contact emergency services when needed.

02Document what happened

Exchange identifying and insurance information and preserve useful photos, location details and witness information when safely possible. Avoid guessing about fault at the scene.

03Contact your insurer

Report the crash promptly and ask what your policy requires for inspection, towing, rental or repairs.

04Was law enforcement absent?

Nevada DMV says its SR-1 may be required within 10 days for qualifying Nevada crashes not investigated at the scene. Check the official DMV requirements rather than assuming every crash needs the same filing.

05Injury or legal dispute?

Medical needs come first. If you need legal advice about injury, liability or a dispute, use the lawyer guide to identify the appropriate legal lane.
