In an Emergency
In the Event of an Accident
It is important always to keep calm.
• If not directly involved, stop at a safe
distance of at least ten meters away
from the accident area.
• If on a motorway, stop without
obstructing the emergency lane and be
especially careful if you need to exit the
vehicle.
• Turn off the engine and switch on the
hazard warning flashers.
• At night, illuminate the accident area
with the headlights.
• Always act with caution to avoid the
risk of being crashed into by other
drivers.
• Indicate that an accident has occurred
by placing the emergency triangle (if
equipped) in a well visible position and
at the prescribed distance.
• Call the emergency services, providing
as much information as possible. On
the motor way, use the special call
boxes.
• Remove the ignition key (if present)
from the vehicles involved.
• If fuel or other chemical products
can be smelled, 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
motorways, particularly where visibility
is poor, there is a high risk of being
involved in other collisions. Leave the
vehicle immediately and move away
from the area.
