AAATHE First aid on the road This Highway Code applies to England, Scotland and Wales. The  Highway Code is essential reading for everyone.  The following information was compiled with the help of St John  Ambulance, the British Heart Foundation and the British Red Cross.  It’s intended as a general guide for those without first-aid training  but shouldn’t be considered a substitute for proper training. Any  first aid given at the scene of an incident should be looked on only  as a temporary measure until the emergency services arrive.  Further collisions and fire are the main dangers following a crash.  Approach any vehicle involved with care. Switch off all engines and,  if possible, warn other traffic. Stop anyone from smoking.  Try to get the assistance of bystanders. Get someone to call the  appropriate emergency services on 999 or 112 as soon as possible.  They will need to know the exact location of the incident and the  number of vehicles involved. Try to give information about the  condition of any casualties, eg if anyone is having difficulty  breathing, is bleeding heavily or does not respond when spoken to.  1.Deal with danger  2.Get help  highwaycodeuk.co.uk 184
