Move out of traffic if you can do so safely. Call 911 immediately if there are injuries, pain, dizziness, or loss of consciousness—even if symptoms seem minor. In California, prompt medical care protects your health and creates critical documentation insurers later try to dispute.
Call police whenever there are injuries, a fatality, or significant damage. Separately, California law requires reporting to the CA DMV any crash involving injury or property damage over $1,000 using Form SR-1 within 10 days, regardless of fault.
Photos/video: vehicles, plates, traffic signals, road conditions, skid marks, damage, visible injuries.
Other driver info: name, license, insurer, policy number.
Witnesses: names and phone numbers.
Early evidence often determines the outcome.
Provide basic facts and cooperate. Do not admit fault, speculate, or say things like “I didn’t see them” or “I was going fast.” If unsure, state you need medical care and will provide a full statement later.
Report the crash promptly, but do not give a recorded statement or sign anything before speaking with a lawyer. Do not minimize injuries. Insurers work to limit payouts from the first call.
Do not repair, discard, or alter the bike, helmet, jacket, gloves, or boots. They are key evidence of impact forces and injury mechanisms.
California follows comparative negligence—your compensation can be reduced by any percentage of fault assigned to you. A motorcycle specialist protects your account, preserves evidence, and maximizes recovery from day one. Contact Scranton Law Firm immediately for a free, strategic case evaluation.
Act fast. What you do in the first hours can determine your health, your case, and your compensation.
