Practice question

If you are involved in a minor crash with no injuries, what should you do first?

  1. Call the police to report the accident.
  2. Move the vehicles out of traffic if possible.
  3. Exchange information with other drivers.
  4. Take photos of the damage.

Answer: B — Move the vehicles out of traffic if possible.

In the event of a minor crash with no injuries, the first priority should be to ensure the safety of all individuals involved and to prevent further accidents. Moving the vehicles out of traffic, if it is safe to do so, helps to keep the roadway clear and reduces the risk of additional collisions. This action also protects the safety of the drivers, passengers, and any other road users. Once the vehicles are moved, other important steps can be taken, such as calling the police to report the accident, exchanging information with other drivers, and documenting the scene with photos. However, the immediate step of relocating the vehicles is crucial for maintaining safety on the roadway.
