WHAT TO DO IN AN ACCIDENT

STEP 1: STAY SAFE

  • If there are injuries, call 9-1-1 immediately
  • Drive the vehicle out of traffic lanes (if safe to do so)
  • Activate 4-way flashers
  • Ensure everyone is a safe distance from passing vehicles
  • Exchange information with other driver(s)

Capture the following information as accurately as possible:

  • Year, make, model, license plate # of other vehicles involved
  • Name, address, home, work and cell phone, driver’s license #, insurance carrier and policy # of all drivers involved
  • Contact information for any witnesses

Take photos or draw a simple diagram of the accident and be sure to include:

  • Point of impact
  • Observations about the other driver’s behaviour or actions that may have impacted the crash

If your Nissan vehicle is still covered under its manufacturer warranty, you can have it towed to the nearest Certified Collision Repair Centre at no charge. Simply call 1-800-267-5936 and we’ll guide you through the entire process.
