Check for injuries. If the motorist is physically able to do so, they should check themselves, as well as the other motorists, to determine whether they suffered any injuries. Someone should call 911 immediately to report the accident and notify the dispatcher if there are injuries so that an ambulance can be sent. Move to a safe location. If a vehicle is creating a safety hazard where it is located and the motorist can move it to a safe spot, he or she should move it to the side of the road so that other vehicles can safely pass, turn the engine off, and turn the hazard lights on. Call 911. Exchange information.
