- Description of the vehicles involved, including the make and model of each vehicle
- Insurance information for other drivers involved in the accident
- Take photographs to document the incident. If you have your cell phone with a camera, use it. Photograph your injuries, the position of the vehicles, the damage to the vehicles, and other evidence at the scene.
