Traffic accidents
Explanation
When providing assistance at a traffic accident, it is essential to **protect yourself** before exiting the vehicle. This includes **putting on an approved reflective vest**. This vest must be yellow, orange, or red and comply with safety standards to ensure you are visible to other drivers, especially in low-light conditions or on roads with traffic.
Putting on the vest before exiting the vehicle is a crucial step to **prevent further accidents** and ensure that the accident site is well marked. This helps emergency services locate the site more easily and prevents other vehicles from becoming involved in the accident. Additionally, it is important to **stop and park the vehicle in a safe place**, turn on the hazard lights, and observe the situation to assess the severity of the accident.
