First, call the police and seek emergency medical treatment immediately! Next, document the scene as much as possible, and take photographs if you are able. The more pictures you take of the scene of the accident, the better. Photograph the license plate of the vehicle that hit you along with the drivers license of the operator of the car and the insurance card for their vehicle(s).
Be sure to obtain the names and phone numbers of all eyewitnesses; their testimony could back up your version of the accident.
Do not rely solely on the police to obtain all of the information, get the info yourself if you are able. If the driver of the car does not want to cooperate, the police will get the required information regarding their name, insurance, and contact details.
Most importantly, if you do not require emergency care at the scene, still visit a doctor immediately! Some injuries take time to manifest symptoms since your body is still in shock. So even if you feel fine initially, you could still be seriously injured. It’s important for your well-being that you seek medical care as soon as possible after the accident.
Last, while every state has different laws regarding pedestrians and car accidents, most states have a statute of limitations for pursuing a case.
