VERY IMPORTANT, you shouldn’t apologize for anything at the scene. For example, if you say, “I’m so sorry I ran that red light! Is everyone okay?” you may be admitting legal liability for what happened. Immediately after an accident, it might not be clear who was at fault or more at fault. Moreover, in many states, fault isn’t determinate of which insurer will pay for any loss. Therefore, try not to admit guilt unintentionally or unnecessarily.

Noelle reports from Arizona that an erratic driver ricocheted off a retaining wall and ended up in Noelle’s lane where Noelle hit her head-on. Noelle received 3 fractures in her wrist, severe soft tissue damage to her knee, disc injuries in her neck (which will be chronic) and a right shoulder strain. She has been treated for 5 months, at a cost of more than $12,000, and is not yet fully recovered. Unfortunately, because she couldn’t work due to her injuries, Noelle lost her job. The value of that loss, to date, is more than $20,000. The driver who caused all of this had only the Arizona minimum liability insurance coverage of $15,000. On her insurance policy, Noelle has uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage of $50,000.
