– In pile-ups on the motorway,
particularly when the visibility is
bad, there is a high risk of other
vehicles running into those already
stopped. Get out of the car immedi-
ately and take refuge behind the
guard rail.
– If the doors are blocked, do not
attempt to smash the windscreen to
get out of the car. It is made of lay-
ered glass and is very hard. Side and
rear window are much more easily
broken.
– Remove the ignition keys from
the vehicles involved.
– If you can smell petrol or other
chemicals, do not smoke and make
sure all cigarettes are extinguished.
– Use a fire extinguisher, blanket,
sand or earth to put out fires no
matter how small they are. Never
use water.
– If it is not necessary to use the car
light system, disconnect the negative
terminal (–) from the battery pole.IF ANYONE IS INJURED
Never leave the injured person alone.
The obligation to provide assistance
exists even for those not directly in-
volved in the accident

jured person
– Reassure the injured person that
help is on its way and will arrive soon.
Stay close by to calm him/her down
in case of panic
– Unfasten or cut seat belts holding
injured parties
– Do not give an injured person any-
thing to drink.
– Do not move an injured person un-
less the following situations arise
– Pull the injured person from the
car only if it risks catching fire, it is
sinking in water or is likely to fall over
a cliff or similar. Do not pull his/her
arms or legs, do not bend the head
and, as far as possible, keep the body
horizontal.IF AN ACCIDENT
OCCURS
– It is important to keep calm.
– If you are not directly involved in
the accident, stop at least ten metres
away from the accident.
– If you are on a motorway do not
obstruct the emergency lane with
your car.
– Turn off the engine and turn on
the hazard lights.
– At night, illuminate the scene of
the accident with your headlights.

being run over.
