What Can I Do After a Motorcycle Accident?

There are several important steps to take following a motorcycle accident:

Remain at the scene.
Call 911 to report the accident.
Exchange driver and insurance information with the other parties involved.
If possible, render aid to anyone in need.
If possible, take pictures and notes referencing the circumstances of the accident and injuries you suffered.
Get the contact information of any witnesses present.
Report the accident to your insurance company.
Do not talk to the other driver's insurance company! They may only be seeking a statement that would limit their client's responsibility in causing the accident.
Contact an Oakland motorcycle accident attorney to talk about what occurred, what you should do at this point and what legal rights you have.
