Traffic Accidents
To Avoid an Accident
- Always keep a safe distance
from the car in front of you. Increase this distance even
more during rainy or foggy conditions.
- Allow rude or impatient drivers
to pass. Stay clear of weaving or reckless drivers; avoid
passing them if possible.
- Do not react to a driver who
has become hostile. Avoid making eye contact or gesturing.
In Case of an Accident
- Unless there is immediate danger
of further accidents, vehicles should be left in accident
position for the perusal of the investigating authority. If
there is danger and no serious injuries if possible, move
your vehicles to a safe area such as a service station or
well lit parking lot. Let the other driver know what you are
doing so he/she does not think you are fleeing the scene.
- Conceal and secure any valuables
before exiting your vehicle.
- Write down the names, addresses,
and phone numbers of all persons involved and all witnesses.
Also write down their vehicle description including the license
plate.
- Notify Campus Safety or if off
campus, other authorities.
- Notify your insurance company
when practicable. Fill in the following: Insured By: Policy
