If you are the first person to come upon the scene of a collision in which you were NOT involved, what should you do?

Correct answer

  • Move your vehicle off the traveled portion of the roadway.
  • Warn approaching traffic.
  • Notify the local police.

Explanation

If you are the first person to come upon the scene of a collision, your first concern should be to prevent another crash. Pull your vehicle off the roadway. Notify emergency officials and do not stand in traffic lanes. Ask others who have stopped to warn approaching traffic. Do not move injured persons unless there is a danger of fire. If possible, turn off the ignition of every vehicle involved in the crash.
