What to do after a motorcycle skid accident?

How a motorcycle skid accident is handled depends on the severity of the skid and the presence of any injuries.

Any accidents that  involve a motorcycle have to be handled with care as these types of accidents have a higher likelihood of an injury. For a motorcycle skid accident with no injuries, what to do next depends on the seriousness of the accident.

If the accident is minor, for example the motorcycle in front of you stops suddenly and you hit their back tire sending them into a skid at a low speed.  Exchange insurance information and go your own way, if both vehicles are drivable.  You are going to want to report this to your insurance company so that they can have a claim started for when the motorcyclist or their insurance turns in a claim to them, because unless the motorcycle rider pulled out in front of you; you are at fault for following to close (depending on your state laws).

If the vehicle is more serious and additional assistance is needed to clean up fuel or tow a vehicle away, call the authorities for assistance and file a police report.  Having a police report filed for a low speed accident is also a good idea, but unless the area you live in requires on to be filed, may not be necessary.
