After being involved in an accident, what should a driver do?

Make an immediate report to the nearest law enforcement agency
Notify their insurance company
Both A and B
Leave the scene quickly

The correct answer is: Both A and B

After being involved in an accident, a driver should take timely and appropriate actions to ensure safety and comply with legal obligations. Making an immediate report to the nearest law enforcement agency is essential because police can document the incident, gather evidence, and provide an official report, which is crucial for insurance claims and legal matters. Additionally, promptly notifying the insurance company is necessary to begin processing claims related to damages, injuries, or liability. Together, these actions help to establish a clear record of the incident and facilitate further steps in dealing with the aftermath of the accident. Leaving quickly without reporting can lead to legal consequences and complicate the situation for all parties involved. Therefore, taking both actions—reporting to law enforcement and notifying the insurance company—is the correct course of action after an accident.
