If an Accident Occurs

Here is what to do if you are involved in

an accident.

• Try to relax and then check to make sure

you are all right. If you are uninjured,

make sure that no one else in your vehicle,

or the other vehicle, is injured.

• If there has been an injury, call 911 for help.

Do not leave the scene of an accident

until all matters have been taken care of.

Move your vehicle only if its position puts

you in danger or you are instructed to move

it by a police officer.

• Give only the necessary and requested

information to police and other parties involved

in the accident. Do not discuss your personal

condition, mental frame of mind, or anything

unrelated to the accident. This will help guard

against post-accident legal action.

• If you need roadside assistance, call

GM Roadside Assistance. See Roadside

Assistance Program on page 481 for more

information.

• If your vehicle cannot be driven, know where

the towing service will be taking it. Get a

card from the tow truck operator or write

down the driver’s name, the service’s name,

and the phone number.

• Remove any valuables from your vehicle

before it is towed away. Make sure this

includes your insurance information and

registration if you keep these items in

your vehicle.

• Gather the important information you will

need from the other driver. Things like name,

address, phone number, driver’s license

number, vehicle license plate, vehicle make,

model and model year, Vehicle Identiﬁcation

Number (VIN), insurance company and

policy number, and a general description

of the damage to the other vehicle.
