Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to the General Traffic Regulations, it is mandatory to notify authorities if there are fatalities or serious injuries. However, there is a nuanced exception: if injuries are clearly minor, road safety is restored (vehicles are not blocking traffic), and none of the involved parties expressly request it, calling the officers is not mandatory. In these cases of minor damage or superficial injuries, priority should be given to exchanging information (joint accident report) and facilitating traffic flow.
