Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is the corresponding traffic authority or its agents. Regulations establish that the Central Traffic Headquarters, or the competent regional or local authority, is responsible for traffic regulation and management. In the event of an incident, they evaluate the global situation and determine the necessary deployment of resources (firefighters, tow trucks, cleaning services, etc.). Medical personnel are limited to victim care, and the driver is responsible for following the PAS protocol (Protect, Alert, Succour).
