Before you drive
- Most countries will require you to complete an accident report form. In your vehicle, you should carry a blank copy of the European Accident Statement.
- Many countries require you to have warning triangles, reflective vests and a first-aid kit in case of an accident. Check local driving regulations to find out more.
- Keep a copy of your green card handy as proof of insurance.
At the scene of the accident
- Dial 112 for emergency service in Europe. You may need to contact the police if there are injuries, you're in a hit-and-run, or the other party is uncooperative and at fault.
- Don't sign anything except the European Accident Statement. This lets each driver explain what happened but doesn't assign blame.
- Take pictures of the accident scene and damaged vehicles, including license plates. If possible, get the other driver’s name, driver’s license number, address and phone number. Also get the name of their insurance carrier, policy number and vehicle registration.
- Use a translation app to help communicate in the local language.
- In a one-car incident, find the owner of any damaged property to complete a report. If you can’t find them, leave a note at the scene and report it at the nearest police station.
