What Should You Do After an Intersection Crash in New Hampshire?

First, seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if injuries seem minor, symptoms such as neck pain, headaches, or back discomfort can develop later. Medical records also help document what happened and support any future insurance claim.

It can also be helpful to:

• Obtain a copy of the police report
  
• Take photos of the vehicle damage and the surrounding area
  
• Gather contact and insurance information from all drivers involved
  
• Keep records of medical bills and missed work
  

Insurance companies often begin reviewing claims soon after a crash. Clear documentation can make communication easier and reduce confusion during the process.

Crashes at intersections such as DW Highway and Henry Clay Drive are frequent, especially during afternoon traffic hours. So, if you are involved in a two-vehicle collision, taking the steps mentioned above may help protect both your health and your claim.
