What should I do if I am sued for a traffic accident?

The way is that the defendant should actively prepare for responding to the lawsuit.

If the plaintiff brings a lawsuit to the court for a traffic accident, the court will serve a copy of the defendant's civil complaint, and the defendant should submit a civil defense in duplicate to the court on time (increase the number of copies according to the number of plaintiffs) to actively prepare for responding.

After receiving the traffic accident confirmation, the parties to a traffic accident may submit a written application for review to the traffic management department of the public security organ at the next higher level, or directly bring a civil lawsuit to the court.

Article 74 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China In the case of a dispute in traffic accident compensation, the parties may request the traffic administrative department of the public security organ for mediation, or they may directly bring a civil lawsuit to the people's court.

After mediation by the traffic administrative department of the public security organ, if the parties fail to reach an agreement or fail to perform the mediation after it takes effect, the parties may bring a civil lawsuit to the people's court.
