No matter how minor you think the accident is, you should contact the police. Just call 911 or have someone else make the call. Officers from the Albuquerque Police Department or the New Mexico State Police will respond. They will secure the scene and make sure everyone that is hurt gets help. Be sure to get medical attention, even if you think you are fine. If you are injured, you may be transported to Presbyterian Hospital, UNM Hospital, Albuquerque ER & Hospital, or Lovelace Westside Hospital. The accident report that officers complete and the medical records from your treatment can both be helpful when you seek compensation. Your next call should be to an experienced car accident attorney.
