After a car accident, the first thing the parties should consider is whether they need to call the police. If the other party escapes or fails to reach a compensation agreement, it needs to report to the police. It is suggested to call the traffic accident alarm telephone number of the National Traffic Safety Administration 122 or call the alarm telephone number 1 10. But for general traffic accidents, the traffic police department is more experienced and authoritative, and can handle such accidents more accurately. When calling the police, you should provide detailed information such as license plate number, time, place, casualties, etc., and try to leave the license plate number and model of the other party so that the traffic police department can investigate and deal with it. If the other party escapes, they should also call the police in time to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests.
After the other party escapes, can it only be traced by the traffic police department? A: After the other party escapes, it can be traced by the traffic police department or handled by the insurance company. If you have vehicle loss insurance, you can apply to the insurance company for compensation. The insurance company will evaluate the loss of the vehicle and the injured and give the corresponding compensation plan.
Car accident is one of the common traffic accidents. After a car accident, you should pay attention to your own safety, call the police in time and safeguard your legitimate rights and interests. At the same time, you should also obey the traffic rules when driving, improve safety awareness and reduce traffic accidents.
