Protect your car
and any other property from further damage.
Contact the police
if anyone is injured; damage is extensive; your vehicle or property
has been stolen; vehicle(s) cannot be driven; other driver(s) fled
the scene; or if you need some other type of assistance.
Collect
information from the other driver(s) involved in the accident. We
will gladly provide you with a brochure from Erie Insurance entitled
“Auto Accident – What To Do”. It is conveniently designed to be carried
with your auto insurance ID card. Do not admit fault or negligence –
allow the professionals to evaluate the facts.
Obtain the
following:
(1.) descriptions of the vehicle(s) and driver(s);
(2.) info pertaining
to witnesses and vehicle occupants;
(3.) description of any injured person(s);
(4.) identity of responding police;
(5.) the date, time and place of the accident;
(6.) any property damage other than
vehicles – mailbox, building, fence, etc.
Use the button at
left for your carrier for instructions on how to report this
