Some of the most common questions people have following a very minor car accident have no black or white answer. Most of the answers associated with car accidents and what’s required of them are gray, and they all have a special consideration or two. Many people are involved in small accidents each day. These are so minor people don’t even ruin the progression of their day to deal with them. They have a little bit of an inconvenience, but it’s not bad enough there are injuries involved or any significant damage to their vehicle. This could be something backing into you in a parking lot, someone hitting you with a grocery cart, or even a minor bump when someone lets off the brake too soon at a stop light or stop sign.
Minor fender benders happen, and most people aren’t too worried. In fact, many people wonder if there is any reason they need to contact the police. If the damage is so minor you needn’t report it and can have it repaired for very little on your own, why report it? Before you assume you can get away with forgoing a call to the police, it’s best to learn what the law requires.
