You should report your crash to your insurance carrier as soon as possible. Provide honest and accurate details of your accident, but do not agree to make a sworn statement to an insurer—even your own—immediately after a crash. Without knowing it, you could end up saying something that will be used against you in the future. Speak with a personal injury lawyer before agreeing to make a statement on the record about your crash or accepting a settlement offer that may prevent you from collecting greater damages in the future.
