Much like in any accident, it is essential to gather as much information as possible at the scene if capable. This includes taking photographs and obtaining information about the other driver and their vehicle. It is also important to remember that one has the protection of their own insurance policy if they own a car and have an auto policy with bodily injury coverage for uninsured or underinsured motorists. This coverage can provide protection in cases of hit-and-run incidents or if the other driver is uninsured or has minimal insurance. Many people do not realize they can rely on this coverage even if they are riding a bicycle or using an e-bike.
