THE SIMPLEST THING TO DO AFTER AN ACCIDENT

Call The Police. Period.

Well, let's talk about – calling the police after a car accident! Now, I know, you might be thinking, "Why bother? It's just a fender-bender." But here's the deal, Decatur pals, calling the police is simpler than making toast and one of the smartest moves you can make after a car accident.

Picture this: You've just been in a little fender-bender, and you're thinking, "No biggie, I'll just exchange info with the other driver and be on my merry way." But here's the twist – without a police report, you're playing a risky game of "he said, she said." It's like trying to solve a mystery without clues.

The police report is your magic wand, your golden ticket, your secret weapon. It's a neutral, third-party account of what went down, complete with important details, witness statements, and sometimes even who's at fault. It's like having Sherlock Holmes (maybe) on the scene to uncover the truth.

Plus, when the adrenaline's pumping and tempers are flaring, having an authority figure around can keep things civil ... like having a referee at a soccer match – they keep everyone in check.

So, the next time you're in a car accident, remember this: Calling the police is as simple as pie, and it's your ticket to clarity, fairness, and peace of mind. It's like adding an extra layer of insurance to your accident, without the premiums. Don't skip it, Decatur friends – you'll thank yourself later!
