What to do in a car accident

Human beings aren’t machines we are perfectly capable of making mistakes. I’m sure you’re aware of this when your wife informs you that she’s only human! I’m reminded of this all the time!

Anyway sorry to go slightly off topic there, but what I’m getting at is no matter how careful you are some time in your driving life you are bound to have some accidents. Sometimes accidents happen before you leave the house, perhaps you accidentally rolled into your garage door for example!

A list of things a driver should do to prepare for a traffic accident is compiled by the consumer protection association of America. The list includes things to help you prevent accidents in the first place, and also to help you once you have been in an accident.

You should start to put together an emergency kit, this kit should include a cell phone, pen, paper, and possibly a camera. However this cannot really be considered a kit, you are advised to prepare this and put it in your glove box, but the problem with cell phones are the batteries. Even if you don’t use your phone and leave it switched off, I’ll guarantee when you need it the battery is flat!

Whenever you’re driving a car you need to take a cell phone with you, if you get a phone with a built in camera then you can use this to take pictures of evidence. Otherwise you should invest in a disposable camera to keep in your glove compartment.

Your cell phone is vital, you can use it to call for assistance or even ask for advice if you don’t know what to do. You need to make sure that it’s kept fully charged otherwise it’s about as useless as a brick, and if it’s as old as mine it’s about the same size too!

The best in headlight repair guaranteed!

Your mobile cell phone can also be used to tell people who are trying to help you who to call. Enter a number under the name “ICE” (In case of Emergency) so the police man, or whoever is on the scene first will know who to call.

It’s a good idea to have some traffic cones, flares and a warning triangle, obviously you can’t expect to fit these into your glove compartment, but they can fit in the trunk!
