What Should Drivers Do After a Multi-Vehicle Crash?
Drivers involved in a multi-vehicle crash should first check for injuries and, when possible, move to a safe position. Hazard lights can help alert approaching motorists when a vehicle remains near an active roadway.
Injured people should receive a medical evaluation, even when injuries appear minor. Some symptoms can develop later, especially after the initial stress of a collision.
Motorists approaching a roadway closure should slow down and follow posted detours. Maintaining a safe following distance also gives you more time to react when traffic suddenly stops.
