ACCIDENT CHECKLIST


    We've put together this handy checklist of Things to do and Things not to do in the event of an accident.
    You can print this out and keep it in your vehicle.
 Fill out as many items as is possible.  This will allow us to protect your legal rights.  You can use the other side to make a diagram of the accident scene.
