I have lost count with how many times I have witnessed someone who caused a car accident, admitted fault at the scene, but then later told their insurance company a different story.
When you get Police involved ASAP, they will come out to the scene and put the car accident “in writing”. This will help prevent the at fault driver from changing their story later.
Furthermore, it is also very good to have an accident report because all of the information about the scene, cars involved, owner of vehicles, drivers of vehicles, insurance information witnesses, officer information, possibly injuries and more! Having this information all documented will help you execute your car accident claim a lot easier.
Moreover, sometimes Police Body Worn Camera’s pick up audio and/or video that discredits the at fault driver. This kind of evidence can help when establishing fault with the insurance company and may entice them to put a bigger settlement on the table depending on what their insured did at the scene.
Be aware, sometimes the Police will tell you over the phone if there is no injuries, to handle it yourself. It’s important you insist on the Police coming out to the scene to make sure the car accident is documented properly.
In summary, having the Police come to the scene can help:
