What to Do in a Bicycle Crash
There are a few things you need to know to protect your legal rights in a bike crash. If you are in a crash with a car, do not leave the scene without:
* The tag number of the car
* The names and phone numbers of any witnesses
* Driver name and contact information
* Police officer name and badge number
Even in cases where cyclists are badly hurt, the police have not always identified the vehicles or driver involved. The ambulance personnel will not include this information in their report
