What to know if involved in a collision

The Washington State Patrol is asking the motoring public to be prepared for rain, snow, ice or fog and use caution while driving on the roadways. Here are some things law enforcement will expect you to do if you are involved in a collision.

If the collision is minor and the vehicles are drivable, move them to a safe location on the shoulder of the roadway. If the collision is more serious in nature or the vehicles are not drivable, stay in your vehicle with your seatbelt fastened for safety.

Report the location of the collision and the injuries by calling 911.
