CAR ACCIDENT

 Met an Accident? 

Relax what happened is past. Now act for the present. There will be ample time to ponder in flash back. 

Whatever I am mentioning here is practical and nothing bookish and will hold good for any state of India with little deviation.

Things can get chaotic very fast after a car accident, but following some basic steps can help improve your situation.   

Few simple steps or list of Do's and Don'ts you should be aware to tackle an accident are

1. Immediately Check for injuries.

2. check for your co-passengers injuries.

3. Pick your phone from car and keep in your pocket immediately,If you have power back etc please try to collect as for next few hours your phone will be only thing which will bring all shorts of help to you  as mentioned above things will be chaotic immediately.

4.Call all help from your phone immediately, send your current location as well as live location in few of your family/friends whats app groups it will improve your chances to get earliest possible  help from your near ones.

5.If situation permits you may take few pictures of the vehicle and location.

6.DO NOT CALL POLICE they will add to your problem and anyway they will come later.

Above are few points which looks idle to observe after an accident except Point No.6

In case of an accident in India if there is involvement of car to car chances are situation will be little manageable but if tis between and big vehicle and a small vehicle ( eg car and a bike) then all blame will come to the bigger vehicle , Police, Public ,Prosecutor all will watch you with an eye that bigger vehicle must have done something wrong.

Now imagine a situation where you met an accident and you were driving a bigger vehichle and accident involved a smaller vehichle and God forbid there is any casualty . Within minutes there will be mob , shouting on you  by the time you are checking your and co passengers injuries they will start damaging your vehicle further, will start abusing and hitting your with boot, stick or whatever mob gets hold of and you fear for your life.

1. Do not look back try to find some one elderly , someone whom your brain tells you to approach  some one who is little different than the mob ( trust me brain tells you -whom to approach in time of difficulty). Try to save yourself.

2. If possible immediately cross the accident site to other side of the road - 80% your job of saving your self is done.

3. Hide your self til your help comes. 

4. Once you are out ot site, police will bring your vehicle to the nearest police station.
