Incidents, Accidents, Emergencies
An injured motorcyclist is lying unconscious in the road. The traffic has stopped and there's no further danger. What could you do to help?
If someone has been injured, the sooner proper medical attention is given the better. Ask someone to phone for help or do it yourself. An injured person should only be moved if they’re in further danger. An injured motorcyclist’s helmet should not be removed unless it's essential.

You’re performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a casualty. Someone stops to help. What should you get them to do?
A defibrillator (AED) could improve the casualty’s chances of survival. Do not stop CPR to fetch an AED, but if there’s someone else with you, you can send them to get one. The 999 operator will direct you to the nearest AED, if you need to use one.

You're the first person to arrive at an incident where people are badly injured. You’ve switched on your hazard warning lights and checked all engines are stopped. What else should you do?
If you’re the first to arrive at a crash scene, the first concerns are the risk of further collision and fire. Making sure that vehicle engines are switched off will reduce the risk of fire. Use hazard warning lights so that other traffic knows there’s a need for caution. Make sure the emergency services are contacted; do not assume it's already been done.

There's been a collision. A motorcyclist is lying injured and unconscious. Why should you only remove their helmet if it’s essential?
When someone is injured, any movement that’s not absolutely necessary should be avoided, since it could make the injuries worse. Unless it's essential to remove a motorcyclist's helmet, it’s generally safer to leave it in place.

What should you do if an instrument panel warning light comes on while you're driving?

What should you do before driving into a tunnel?
If you're wearing sunglasses, you should remove them before driving into a tunnel. If you do not, your vision will be restricted, even in tunnels that appear to be well lit.

An adult casualty is not breathing. To maintain circulation, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) should be given. What's the correct depth to press down on their chest?
