Highway Injury: What To Do Now
Even the most simple car wreck cases require special knowledge or the evidence in your case will be compromised. Many cars now have “black boxes” in them that must contain valuable clues about the driver’s driving habits including speed, braking habits and other driving issues. This evidence must be captured quickly or it will disappear.
Truck wreck cases require special knowledge or the evidence in your case will be compromised. Big Rigs have “black boxes” in them that contain valuable evidence. This data must be captured quickly or the evidence will disappear. These black boxes contain valuable clues to the driver’s speed habits, braking habits and other driving issues.
SATELLITE INFORMATION: Many vehicles have satellite communication systems that tell where the vehicle is located at any particular time. These records will be destroyed in the normal course of business if the company is not put on notice to save this valuable information or if the insurance is not put on notice to save this valuable information. This information is important because it must be compared against the drivers log books for accuracy or against the drivers testimony for accuracy.
ACCIDENT RECONSTRUCTION: We may send an accident reconstruction expert to the wreck scene. This must occur very soon after the wreck so as to preserved evidence such as skid marks, gouge marks in the pavement and other valuable clues that will disappear over time.
BEWARE OF INSURANCE CALLING: Insurance companies have been known to “lull” persons into a sense of security that they will “take care of you” all the while allowing this valuable evidence to disappear. They will call you “just to check on you” all the time gathering information they will use against you.
CELL PHONE RECORDS: It is illegal for a driver to speak on a phone, text or email while driving. Cell phone records can be discovered is there is a timely request from us from the cellular phone carrier. However, if a timely request is not made, the information will be destroyed.
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS: You need to know how much insurance the other driver had when the wreck occurred. In some states, such as Tennessee and Alabama, they do not have to tell you this information. In Arkansas, they must disclose this information. They will never tell you the amount of their coverage without the assistance of an attorney.
SOCIAL MEDIA: Once the insurance company discovers your identity they will immediately begin to find out everything they can about you using Facebook, Twitter, Linked in, Instagram and other popular sites. DO NOT post about your case on these sites.
