Steps to Take After a Car Accident
Car accidents are unfortunately common on Vancouver Island, with over 39,000 accidents occurring annually. In Victoria, high-traffic areas such as Douglas Street, the Island Highway, and Burnside see a significant number of collisions. If you’re involved in a car accident, there are important steps you should take to ensure both your recovery and the best chance for compensation.
1. Assess Injuries and Exchange Information
Immediately assess any injuries and call 9-1-1 if medical attention is required. Exchange information with the other parties involved, including any potential witnesses. If possible, take photos of the scene to document vehicle damage, positioning, and any debris on the road.
2. Seek Medical Attention
Whether your injuries are serious or minor, it’s crucial to seek medical attention. Visiting a doctor or hospital will not only assist in your recovery but will also help create a record should you later seek compensation. If you don’t have a general practitioner (GP), attending a clinic regularly is recommended for consistent treatment records.
3. Consult a Personal Injury Lawyer
After seeking medical care, consider consulting a personal injury lawyer to explore your legal options. A lawyer can guide you through the process of negotiating with ICBC or assist you in handling your ICBC claim from start to finish.
4. Notify ICBC
Promptly inform ICBC about the accident and your injuries. As you recover, track your medical expenses and treatment costs, as they may be eligible for reimbursement from ICBC.
