HOW TO REPORT AN ACCIDENT
A car accident can happen when you least expect it. You could be switching lanes, looking for
a parking space or pulling out of your driveway, and all of a sudden, crash!13 Whether you
hit someone or another driver hits you, you need to know what to do after a car accident. Here' s
a checklist to keep in mind when it comes to reporting your car accident.
【1】 as well as the make, color and model of the vehicle. If there is no pen and paper available,
repeat the numbers in your head until you can write them down or snap a picture with your mobile
phone.
【2】 Police will be needed on scene to direct traffic and to help get all vehicles to safety.
Also, a police report is needed for the insurance company to determine who is responsible for
paying the damages.
【3】 before getting out of the car. Never step out of the car into moving traffic.
【4】 Politely ask the witnesses (if any) to wait with you until the police come so that they
can give their statements about the crash.
【5】 with the other driver for insurance and payment issues.
【6】 just in case you may need to file a claim.
And a final note: protecting your safety is the first priority after a car accident. Turn on
your hazard lights as soon as possible and put up other signals behind the crash scene so that
other drivers should proceed carefully and safely.
PEDESTRIAN CRITICALLY INJURED IN WESTWOOD HIT-AND-RUN CRASH
A pedestrian was critically injured in a Westwood area car accident near the corner of Wilshire
Boulevard and Veteran Avenue early morning on January 5, 2016.
The police said it involved a hit-and-run driver. The car was dark and was last seen traveling
east on Ashton Avenue from Veteran Avenue. The investigation is ongoing.
It appears that the driver struck and seriously injured the pedestrian, and left the victim
lying in the roadway without even stopping to help or call emergency personnel. Outrageous!
Leaving the scene of an injury or fatal crash is a serious crime under California law. California
Vehicle Code 20001 (a) states: The driver of a vehicle involved in an accident resulting in
injury to a person, other than himself or herself, or in the death of a person shall immediately
stop the vehicle at the scene of the accident.
We hope the driver in this case is arrested and brought to justice. If you have any information

A lawyer friend of mine has devoted herself to the service of humanity. Her special area is
calledpublic interest law(公共利益法) .
Many other lawyers serve only clients who can pay high fees. All lawyers have had expensive
and highly specialized training, and they work long, difficult hours for the money they get.
But what happens to people who need legal (法律上的) help and cannot pay these lawyers' fees?
Public interest lawyers fill this need. Patricia, like other public interest lawyers, gets
less money than some lawyers, because she is willing to take less money. Her clients have the
help they need, even if they can pay nothing at all.
Some clients need legal help because stores have cheated them with bad goods. Others are in
unsafe houses. Their cases are calledcivilcases. Still others are criminals (刑事犯罪) , and
they go to those public interest lawyers who are in charge ofcriminalcases.
These are just a few of the many situations in which the men and women who are public interest
lawyers serve to extend justice (正义) throughout our society.
