Car Accidents and Police stops are stressful and potentially expensive.  While we all hope to avoid these situations, being prepared can make all the difference in handling them smoothly and with confidence. That’s why we created the Driver’s Defender Guide, a laminated leaflet designed to fit in your glove compartment and provide you with the guidance you need in two key situations: Car accidents and Police stops.

On one side of the guide, you’ll find practical advice on what to do if you’re in a car accident. We cover everything from taking photos to exchanging information with the other driver, notifying your insurer, and much more. Whether you’re a new driver or an experienced one, having this information at your fingertips can help you stay calm and focused in a stressful situation. You’ll be able to take the right steps to protect yourself and your passengers, and avoid costly mistakes that could harm your insurance claims or legal rights.

On the other side of the guide, you’ll find valuable tips on how to handle a police stop. This information is especially important for new drivers, who may not be familiar with their constitutional rights and how to assert them. We cover everything from your Miranda rights to your right to speak to an attorney, record the interaction, and deny a request to search your person or vehicle. By following these guidelines, you can avoid unnecessary tickets or arrests, and protect your rights as a citizen.
