When you get into a car accident, you should check to see if your car was damaged. If damage did happen, you should document this damage. You can take pictures to do this. Also, you can contact the police to file a report. Then, you should bring the car to a mechanic. The mechanic can give you an estimate of how much it costs to repair your car. Keeping track of this amount will be important if you want to recover damages from the other driver. If the other driver caused the accident, they need to pay to have your car fixed.
