What to Do After a Car Accident in Redlands, CA
If you're involved in a crash on a freeway, try to move to the shoulder if your vehicle is drivable and it's safe to do so. Turn on hazard lights and stay inside the vehicle if traffic is still moving nearby. Call 911 to report the collision and request medical evaluation, even if injuries aren't immediately obvious. Exchange information with the other driver if possible, and take photos of the vehicles and surroundings. Keep a record of any paperwork from responding officers, since it can help later when sorting out insurance or medical follow-up.
