So the short answer is yes, probably. If you are injured at all or feel like you might be injured, it’s always a good idea to call the police after an accident, even if it seems minor at the time. Police report provides an official narrative and record of what happened, which can be very important later on when you are dealing with insurance companies or if there is a dispute as to who was at fault. Some injuries don’t show up right away, and what seemed like a minor accident at the time may turn out to have serious, unexpected consequences. Having that report protects your rights from the start.
