Avoid these top 5 mistakes made by those in a Moore Car Wreck.
Getting into a wreck — whether it’s a fender bender on 4th Street or a high-speed crash on I-35 — can leave you rattled. In the moments and days after the accident, the choices you make can have a big impact on your ability to recover physically, financially, and legally.
If you were hurt in a car accident in Moore, here are five common mistakes we see — and how to avoid them.
1. Leaving the Scene Too Quickly
Even if the damage seems minor, always stay at the scene, check for injuries, and call the police. An official report is critical for your claim — and leaving early (especially on busy roads like 19th Street or Eastern Ave) could hurt your case or violate state law.
2. Not Getting Medical Attention Right Away
You might feel fine at first, but car crash injuries can take time to show up. Don’t wait. Whether you visit Norman Regional or a local urgent care clinic, getting checked out creates a record that connects your injuries to the wreck — which is essential if you file a claim later.
3. Talking to the Insurance Company Without Legal Advice
Adjusters are trained to get you to say things that weaken your case. They might sound helpful, but their job is to save the insurance company money — not to protect you. Before you give a recorded statement or accept any settlement offer, talk to a lawyer.
4. Skipping Documentation
If possible, take photos of the damage, the road, skid marks, traffic signs, and anything else that could help tell the story. Get contact info for the other driver and any witnesses. The more you document, the harder it will be for anyone to dispute what happened.
5. Assuming You Don’t Need a Lawyer
Even if your wreck seems “small,” you may still have a case — especially if you were injured, missed work, or are dealing with medical bills. A local attorney can explain your options and make sure you’re not settling for less than you deserve.
