Witnessing a car accident first-hand requires a calm, cool, and collected response under traumatic circumstances. Your course of action will largely depend on the severity of the crash and the extent of the injuries, but there are some general guidelines to keep in mind. By following these tips, you’ll be better prepared to help your fellow drivers until the professional emergency responders arrive. Ensure Your Safety First If you are driving when you spot a car crash, pull over to the side of the road at least 100 feet from the scene and put on your hazard lights. You want to give enough distance so you don’t put yourself in danger of broken glass, leaked fuel, or flames. Call 911 Never assume that someone else already called 911. Even if the wreck doesn’t appear severe, the authorities should be notified. Let the 911 operator know you witnessed a car accident, the location, number of people involved, and any other pertinent details. Check On The Victims Once you’ve ensured that it’s safe to approach the scene, check on the condition of the crash victims to make sure they are okay and offer help, if you are able. While this can be an emotionally taxing time, try to stick to the facts and remember that this is not the time to assess who is at fault for the accident or make judgments on what the other driver must have been thinking. A good rule of thumb is to never admit fault at the scene. Unless there’s a risk of the vehicle catching fire, do not under any circumstances m...

Police now say a mysterious incident in which a body was found on Interstate 93 in Medford, Massachusetts, during Tuesday morning's commute was the result of a man who jumped from the overpass onto the highway and was struck by one or more vehicles. The incident caused a great deal of confusion, with the Massachusetts Department of Transportation initially describing it as a fatal crash, before state police later called it a "death investigation." Troopers found the body around 4:30 a.m. on I-93 south, south of Exit 21, state police said. They provided an update at 11:20 a.m. saying that evidence indicates that the victim in the incident, an adult male, intentionally jumped from the overpass onto I-93 below, "where he was struck by at leat one, and likely more than one, vehicle." The man's name was not released, and state police said no further updates are expected. Get Boston local news, weather forecasts, lifestyle and entertainment stories to your inbox. MassDOT had said shortly after 6 a.m. that a crash investigation involving a fatality was ongoing. Drivers were told to expect delays, with the two right lanes closed for the crash investigation.
