If you have been in a road traffic accident:

After a road traffic accident, it is perfectly natural for shock or even panic to set in, however, it is important to try and remain as calm and as composed as possible. After a road traffic accident,* it’s vital to exchange information with the other road user involved in the accident.
The information you should collect includes:

  • The Person’s Name

  • Address

  • Vehicle Registration

  • Insurance information

  • Phone number

Call the Garda as soon as possible following a collision. Even if the collision seems minor, it is important that the Garda log the collision in an accident report. This accident report will remain on file and may become a vital piece of evidence.

In the event of an injury, seek medical attention immediately. The effects of shock can include a numbing effect that may make the extent of an injury hard to detect.
