After a car accident, most people focus on the obvious things like vehicle damage, injuries, insurance claims, and getting back to normal life. But according to Clarke, one of the most important pieces of the entire process is often overlooked: the collision report and the evidence surrounding it.

In this episode, Clarke explains why reporting an accident matters, what information is captured in a police collision report, and how critical evidence can disappear in a matter of days or even hours. We’ll share real-world examples of cases where skid marks, vehicle data, witness statements, and surveillance footage completely changed the outcome of a claim. 

Here’s what we discuss in this episode:

🚔 Report The Accident: Documentation matters 

📋 Collision Reports: Critical details drive claims 

⏳ Evidence Fades Fast: Act quickly after a crash 

🔍 Investigation Matters: Small details can change everything 

💰 Watch For Liens: Settlements aren't always yours to keep
