Accidents occur on a daily basis, and no one is ever prepared for it. However, it is best to know what to do in case an accident occurs. Do not panic, remain at the scene, and check for injuries. If anyone is hurt, contact an ambulance immediately.
It is imperative to notify the police of an accident, even when there are no injured parties involved. Record accurate information and relay such to the investigators during examination and documentation.
If involved in a minor accident, move the affected vehicle to the shoulder and turn on the hazard lights to alert other motorists and ensure their safety. If possible, also gather information about the other drivers involved in the accident, as well as witness information.
Never leave the scene of the accident until the police have left, or granted their permission. Accident reports show that some drivers flee crash scenes, thereby putting themselves at risk of facing criminal charges later on.
