IN AN EMERGENCY
IN THE EVENT OF
AN ACCIDENT
It is important always to stay calm.
- If you are not directly involved, stop at a distance of at least ten metres away from the accident area.
- If you are on a highway, stop without obstructing the emergency lane.
- Turn off the engine and turn on the hazard warning lights.
- At night, illuminate the accident area with the headlights.
- Always act with caution: you should not risk someone crashing into you.
- Indicate that an accident has occurred by placing the emergency triangle in a well visible position and at the prescribed distance.
- Call the emergency services, providing as much information as possible. On highways, use the special emergency call boxes.
- Remove the ignition key from the vehicles involved.
- If you smell fuel or other chemical products, do not smoke and ask people around you to put their cigarettes out.
To extinguish fires, even small ones, use a fire extinguisher, blankets, sand or earth. Never use water.
In multiple accidents occurred on highways, particularly where visibility is poor, there is a high risk of being involved in other collisions.
Leave your vehicle immediately and move away from it.
