You are the first to arrive at the scene of the accident where there are injured people. You secure the scene of the accident and have gained an overview of the situation. What else do you have to do?

In this situation, after securing the accident scene and assessing what has happened, German traffic law requires you to provide first aid to any injured persons and to notify emergency services. Giving first aid is a legal obligation for everyone at an accident scene if you are capable of helping, and it can be crucial for the victims. Notifying emergency services ensures that professional help arrives quickly. Documenting the accident is not a mandatory immediate step—your priority must be helping the injured and alerting authorities. You selected the correct actions, which are the right priorities according to the rules.
