  2. Exit your vehicle safely and check on any other drivers involved.
  3. Assess the damage of both vehicles and take pictures.  
  4. Call the police to file an incident report.  
  5. Exchange insurance and contact information with the other drivers involved. 
  6. If there are witnesses, ask them to give you their account of what happened as well as their contact information.
