Car accidents happen. According to the Minnesota Motor Department of Public Safety, 78,465 happen in our state per year.
Now what? Here are a couple quick checklists to use when you mind is a bit foggy and you are stressed after a fender bender.
Remember, in Minnesota, you have just 10 days to report an incident.
Once you are safe, it’s important to take care of you. Because of the shock of the accident, you may not realize you are injured. This is the reason you need to have an exam to rule out any serious injuries. It is best to this as soon as possible. If your injuries are not tended to early, they may worsen, and lead to a more serious situation.

The most common car accident injury is whiplash. It can happen when you are stopped and your car is hit lightly. So, don’t think these symptoms will go away.
The key to a quick recovery after an auto accident is to seek help and pay attention to what your body is telling you. With professional help, you can start healing faster.
