The treatment of auto injury is different from typical injury. In the auto injury treatment, you have to consider not only curing the damage but also how to prove that the injury is due to a traffic accident. Proving it to the at-fault party, insurance companies, and also to GIROJ (General Insurance Rating Organization of Japan.) is critical in the process of claiming compensation.
Give aid to the injured, call an emergency service, police, and insurance companies. If you have some extra time, collect information on the accident scene by taking pictures and recording the conversation with the police.
If police categorize the accident as a personal injury traffic accident, the at-fault driver could incur both administrative and criminal penalties. If the accident is categorized as a property damage traffic accident, the people involved in the crash could incur an only administrative penalty.
