Do you still need to call the police if the other driver admits fault?

Can you file a claim if you were partly at fault?
Should you take a quick check to "help with bills"?

Short answers: yes, yes, and absolutely not — the moment you deposit that check, your case is closed forever.

Should you give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance?

Does fixing your car close your medical claim?

Can you sue if a crash made an old injury worse?

We break down the questions we hear most — but when in doubt, talk to your lawyer first.

Never say "I'm so sorry" — say "Are you okay? Let's exchange insurance and call the police."

Don't just go home — get to Urgent Care or the ER as fast as possible.

And skip the close-up scratch photos — take wide shots of the whole scene, the license plates, and the skid marks. A close-up doesn't show who cut off whom.

In Utah, bicycles have the same rights and duties as any car.

By law, drivers must give you at least 3 feet of space when passing. Insurance loves to blame cyclists for being on the road, but drivers have to check their blind spots and wait for a safe time to pass.

Even a small bump can cause a serious injury on a bike.

The owner says they're not responsible because the dog was on a leash — in Utah, that doesn't matter.

If you didn't provoke the dog, even on a leash, the owner is still legally responsible.

It doesn't matter if it was a loss of control for a split second. Utah's dog-bite law is strict: their dog, their insurance, your recovery.

Don't accept cash at the scene — internal injuries often show up hours later and cost thousands.

Don't assume fault just because you weren't in a crosswalk.

And always document the street lights and weather. In Utah, drivers have a duty of care even if you were outside the lines — if they were speeding or distracted, they're still responsible.

Even a low-speed parking-lot hit can cause hidden spine injuries that show up weeks later. Call the police and get an MRI, even if you think you're fine. As a pedestrian you have the right of way, and "I didn't see you" is not a legal defense.

These drivers did everything right — stopped at a red light, following every rule, with zero time to react. The truck likely had a brake failure.

In Utah, a mechanical failure isn't an excuse, it's negligence. If the company didn't maintain their fleet, they're responsible. Never sign the first offer in a crash like this.

"They came out of nowhere," "I didn't think the floor was that wet," and "the sun was in my eyes." Each one sounds human — but legally, they're just confirming they weren't being careful enough. Don't let a convenient excuse cost you your claim.
