I was driving round the M25 and there was an accident in front of me, I could still get round so I slowed down, put hazards on but drove past and carried on my way.

What’s the actual protocol in those situations? I could see all the airbags were deployed, there’s nothing I could do for the people inside and for sure getting out on a motorway is a bad idea.

But I feel like I should have done something different. Can anyone with knowledge enlighten me?

      911 works also, but yes it’s supposed to be 999.

          Just a sensible solution by the UK for dealing with stupid Americans. A bit like how Japan has a hotline for Japanese people in Paris having panic attacks over how filthy the place is.

            We have all of the other emergency numbers too, cause tourists in an emergency don’t think.
