Be prepared in case you get involved in an accident

A savvy road-user is always prepared.

One never knows when one might be involved in a car accident.

It’s not a pleasant experience, which we wish won’t happen but unfortunately it might.

When using the road as a motorist, it’s important to understand that you may be involved in a car accident at any stage – and being prepared for it, will reduce the amount of stress the situation brings.

You should always have these things in your car:

• Pencil and notebook.
• Insurance claim form.
• Chalk.
• First-aid kit.
• Flashing torch.
• Red reflective triangle/s.
• Camera.

Having these things available, will mean that you can clear up all that needs to be taken care of, in the quickest time possible – so that a regular flow of traffic can resume as soon as possible.
