| What to do when you have an accident. |
| In Case of Accident: NEVER "Make a Deal" for damages. NEVER leave the scene of even a MINOR accident. NEVER accept an offer of cash, check or "private" settlement. NEVER disavow an injury to you or your passengers. NEVER offer to pay ANYTHING,even if you think you are at fault. NEVER administer first aid unless you are LICENSED to do so. ALWAYS (when conditions permit), move to the shoulder or other "SAFE AREA" to prevent further damage. ALWAYS ask someone to summon the police and seek medical assistance. Repeat at 5-minute intervals. ALWAYS remember the 3 C's: Remain CALM, COURTEOUS and CONSISTENT in your version of the accident. ALWAYS obtain complete information from those involved, including: License Plate Number And State Owner's Name Driver's Name And Age Registration/VIN Address City State Zip Home Telephone Work Telephone Insurance Company Policy Number Expiration Date Damage ALWAYS obtain the names of witnesses including addresses and phone numbers. ALWAYS notify the owner of the car you are driving as soon as possible. Defensive Driving Course Chances are, YOU have been, or will be, involved in a traffic accident unless…YOU learn a better way to drive through DDC. |
