When involved in an accident that is not your fault, what should you do?

  1. leave the scene immediately

  2. stay at the scene and notify police

  3. drive away quietly

  4. wait for the other driver to leave

The correct answer is: stay at the scene and notify police

Staying at the scene and notifying the police is crucial when involved in an accident, regardless of who's at fault. This action helps ensure that an official report is created, documenting the incident and the circumstances surrounding it. This can be vital for insurance claims and legal considerations down the line. Leaving the scene, driving away quietly, or waiting for the other driver to leave can lead to serious legal consequences, including hit-and-run charges, even if the accident was not your fault. Being present and cooperating with law enforcement allows for a clear record of events and can protect your interests as well as those of others involved in the incident.
