- Q: Auto Accident Injury FAQs
A: After an auto accident injury, you are often going to be frightened and stressed. This is completely normal, but it is important to know that this is the time when you need to keep your wits about you more than ever. These frequently asked questions may help you to do that by answering the questions that may worry you most. - Q: When do I report the accident?
A: Immediately. As soon as you are able to make a 911 call, report the accident. If you are too injured to make the call, have someone else do so for you. - Q: When should I seek medical help?

A: Some auto accident injuries are more apparent than others, but even if you don’t think you are hurt after an accident you should always get checked out. Some injuries may not be apparent until a day or two after the accident, for example whiplash might not be apparent until you wake up the day after the accident. - Q: What if I can’t afford medical care?
