Car Insurance in spain

In the event of an accident, you should switch on your hazard warning lights, put on your high visibility jacket and place emergency triangles at a distance of 50 metres and 100 metres behind the car.
If there is any injury or if the road is blocked because either or both of the vehicles cannot be moved you MUST call the emergency number 112. If someone is seriously injured do not try to move them, unless they are in danger. Help keep them safe, calm & warm and wait for the emergency services.
If the Police are called you must not move your vehicle even if the road is blocked as they will need to see the incident in situ to properly prepare their report. The Police report will not apportion blame but simply quote what each driver has said and provide a sketch of the road and the incident.
If there is no injury, and it is clear who is at fault, the vehicles can be moved and you do not need to call the Police. Ideally. take photographs of the incident and look for any witnesses before any vehicle is moved. In all cases you must complete a European Accident Statement with the other driver. Both drivers have to sign it for their respective insurers as this is the basis upon which a claim will be handled.
