1. Report traffic accidents in time, deal with them actively, and do not destroy the scene?
1. Once a traffic accident happens, especially a major traffic accident, you should first call the police and wait for the traffic department to conduct on-site inspection and collect evidence so as to issue a letter of responsibility. Correct and reasonable liability determination is based on a relatively complete site. The parties to the accident should pay attention to keeping the site, and the motor vehicle side should keep this in mind. Because if it is a machine accident, the cost of destroying the scene may be the full responsibility of the motor vehicle. ?
2. Casualties often occur in traffic accidents. At this time, as the responsible party of the accident, it should be actively handled. First of all, you should call 120 emergency number. If you are close to the hospital, you can choose non-accident vehicles to send the injured to the hospital for treatment. The non-responsible party of the accident should also treat the wounded according to humanitarian principles, which is also the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.
3, the scene of the accident is of great significance to the qualitative and responsibility identification of traffic accidents, and all parties to the accident should maintain the scene of the accident from being damaged. Traffic accidents, especially major traffic accidents, often involve criminal responsibility. According to the law, if a major traffic accident occurs and you take full responsibility or main responsibility, you should bear criminal responsibility.
4, then the traffic team's responsibility determination is very important for the driver to bear criminal responsibility, and the basis for the traffic team to determine the responsibility of all parties in the accident is the scene of the accident, vehicle performance and the driver's fault. , mainly the scene of the accident. As a high-risk industry, motor vehicles have the burden of proof on whether they have the responsibility. Therefore, if they can't inspect the scene, which leads to the presumption of accident responsibility, it is often the motor vehicle side that bears all the responsibilities, and very few of them are the main responsibilities, and there is almost no possibility of secondary responsibility and no responsibility.
Second, contact the insurance company in time?
No matter whether the accident vehicle is insured by compulsory insurance or commercial insurance, it should be reported in time after the accident (the regulations of various insurance companies generally range from 24 hours to 72 hours), so as to make insurance claims smoothly and help reduce the economic losses of the insured.
Third, when is the lawsuit?
1. After the traffic accident, the traffic team intervened in the investigation. After the traffic team issues the accident confirmation, all parties can file a lawsuit for their own losses. ?
2. After the responsibility is confirmed, the injured person can file a lawsuit for the expenses already spent. However, this lawyer believes that if the injured person has the ability to advance medical expenses, he should file a lawsuit after the first treatment and file a second lawsuit after the second operation and disability appraisal, which not only protects his rights, but also saves litigation resources.
