If you have been injured in a car accident in New York City, the first thing you should do is call the police. New York law requires individuals to report all car accidents that result in a serious injury or fatality. A New York City police officer or perhaps a state trooper from the New York State Police will then respond to your accident. When they do, the investigating police officer or state trooper will fill out an accident report, which is officially known as a New York State Department of Motor Vehicles Report of Motor Vehicle Accident. This written report contains a wealth of information about your accident and often plays a big role in how much money you receive for your injury-related expenses.
