The police should always be called, and here's why. You bump a truck. You exchange information and everyone's happy. The truck gets an estimate for repair. The estimate is far more than you expected it to be. Now there's a problem, because you think you're being fleeced and he wants his truck repaired. Or, you pay him and then he wants more money. The two of you end up in small claims court. With a police report, the accident is documented and your insurance companies can work everything out.

What do you do after an accident?
Don't run is the first thing; make sure everyone is okay and out of harms way; out of the traffic - call for the police. Exchange driver's license information, insurance information. If anyone is hurt, call 911. DO NOT LEAVE THE SCENE until the police have told you it is okay or if it is a minor accident and you have not called the police and you have all exchanged info and you can drive away safely, then do so and immediately go and call your insurance co. But a police report should be filed on ALL ACCIDENTS NO MATTER WHAT.
