What to Do After a Multi-Vehicle Crash in Sussex, Wisconsin
If you're involved in a crash with several other vehicles, stay as calm as possible and check yourself and passengers for injuries before stepping out. Move to the roadside if your vehicle is drivable and it's safe to do so. Call 911 even if damage looks minor, since injuries from multi-car pileups aren't always obvious right away. Get checked by a medical provider within a day or two, even if you feel fine at the scene. Take photos of all vehicles involved, get contact and insurance information from other drivers, and request a copy of the police report once it's filed.
