Accident dunces on Ontario roads
I saw an accident happen the other day, not too
serious, both cars were still drivable. However, the dunces do not know the procedure for dealing with an accident. They get out of their cars, start talking, they probably called the police, meanwhile their cars immediately start to create a traffic jam. I came out of a store 25 minutes later, they were still there! The procedure for this is simple; If no one is hurt, move your cars to the shoulder, side of the road, or just drive them out of the way of traffic. Exchange information and go a an accident reporting centre within 24 hours. Call you insurance company. No cops, no traffic jams. |

I believe you must comply with the law in the event of an accident. In
some areas, the law says you don't move anything until released by law enforcement if the accident happens on public roads. If it happens on private property (which includes mall type parking lots), the law doesn't apply unless there is bodily injury involved. Additionally, some insurance company requirements may impose some restrictions. I'm not sure about that, though I can recall that years ago, if you moved your vehicle without being directed to by traffic enforcement, some insurance companied got very touchy about paying up without a hassle.

That ended years ago when "no fault" insurance came in and the police got sick of wasting their time at the hundreds of minor accidents that happened each day in a city. > >On Fri, 24 Jun 2005 13:42:10 -0400, RichA > wrote: > >>I saw an accident happen the other day, not too >>serious, both cars were still drivable.
