What to do in the event of a car accident in Spain
When you are involved an automobile accident, even if you are not injured, there are certain things that you should and should not do.
Unless the vehicles can’t be moved or there are people with serious injuries, vehicles must be pulled off the road as far as possible. If you can, move the vehicle after taking some photographic evidence to avoid any potential fines for obstructing traffic.
The drivers involved are obliged to exchange information such as registration number, full name, address and details of the insurance company.
Write down the license plate number of all vehicles and witnesses involved, as this could be vital if the case goes to court.
Don’t sign any paperwork unless you fully understand and agree.
The accident Report

In the event of a small accident with no injuries, the parties involved ought to exchange details and make a declaration of events. This accident report has to be submitted to the insurance company.
