WHAT TO DO AT THE SCENE OF AN ACCIDENT
Due to the frequency of accidents on our roadways, you may find yourself at the site of one.
Here’s what you should do:
When an accident happens, the safety of accident victims, emergency personnel, and other road users is the top priority.
The first hour after an accident is referred to as the “Golden Hour,” and physicians say that severely injured auto accident victims must receive thorough medical care within 60 minutes to have a decent chance of survival. This scenario provides rescuers approximately 12 minutes to extract the injured and get them to the hospital.
Consider the flow of traffic at the location. Are you or others, including the victim, at risk?
Before blocking traffic, consider the impact on emergency vehicles attempting to reach the area.
If someone is available, dispatch them up and down the road to stop traffic.
If the incident occurred at night, activate the hazard lights and ignite flares to warn oncoming motorists of the risk.
Consider the placement of any vehicles involved in the incident and the risks they may represent (such as rolling forwards or backwards). Consider safety – continually reevaluate the safety of the scenario, particularly if you rely on others to protect you.
Stop all vehicles involved in the crash and turn them off.
