If you are involved in a collision and the vehicles are still operational, _______.?

Question

move them away from each other

remain exactly where the collision occurred

move them out of traffic

move them to the opposite side of the road

Answer 1

Regardless of what they teach on the drivers test or what the cops say to do, if you don't call the police and get an accident investigation done at the crash site, tough luck. After the fact the police will not determine who is at fault. If you exchange info and go on your way and it turns out the other person lied abut having insurance, you have absolutely no recourse. The police will say, "We didn't conduct an investigation or make out an accident report so we can't get involved".

Answer 2

...you and the other person should drive to the nearest bar, get a beer and whoever wins 2 of three in 9-ball pays.

Answer 3

leave them sit until the police arrive, moving nothing.

My Dad was in a wreck years ago because some guys that were driving without they're lights on, totalled my Dad's truck. In anger my dad yelled at them and told them to turn they're lights on! When the police got there they couldn't say it happened because they had no lights, because he was seeing them on! They got off of it and my dad was left with a wrecked truck and just liability insurance, he was out of a truck. They have to sit as positioned from the wreck so the police can do an accurate polie report, for court if needed, and for everyone's insurance purposes.

Answer 4

Out of traffic

Answer 5

Depends on the area.  Most big cities and freeways have signs that instruct motorists to move damaged vehicles to the side if there are no injuries.

In some places, the police want to make measurements and take pictures after a serious collision before anything is moved.

Answer 6

Well you should leave them alone but if they are in the way then you will have to move them........

If you have to move them it will be best to take a picture of the accident to show to the police......
