If a motor cycle accident occurs, state law requires that certain procedures must be followed. No matter who was at fault in a two motorcycle accident, both parties must stop at the scene. Make sure to exchange names and addresses and insurance company information. You should also call the police. The resulting police report will include details of the accident including damages and injuries. If someone has been injured, you should get a copy of the report as verification.

Many states require that an accident report be filed with the department of motor vehicles within a certain time period. You should also report the accident to your insurance company immediately, even if no one was injured. If later, a claim is made against you as a result of the automobile accident, your insurance company may be obligated to provide an attorney for your defense. If you're personally contacted by the other party or their lawyer you should refer all correspondence to your insurance company. You shouldn't deal directly with anyone who claims to be injured or damaged as a result of the accident. However, if you feel you have been injured as a result of someone else's negligence, you should immediately seek the advice of an experienced personal injury attorney.
