Immediately following a bike accident, it’s crucial to take the following precautions:

Assess the Situation: Stay calm and assess the surroundings for safety. Ensure there is no immediate danger, such as oncoming traffic.

Call Emergency Services: Dial emergency services (108 or the local equivalent) to request immediate assistance. Provide clear information about the accident location and the condition of those involved.

Ensure Personal Safety: Move to a safe location, away from traffic or potential hazards.

Protective Gear: Avoid removing the helmet unless absolutely necessary for medical assessment. Helmets can provide crucial head protection.

Check for injuries: Observe the injured individual for symptoms of breathing issues, serious bleeding, or other potentially fatal circumstances.

Stop the Bleeding: Apply pressure to the wound with a clean towel or bandage if there is clear bleeding. Minimize movement to prevent further injury.

Keep Warm: If the weather is cold, cover the injured person with a blanket or clothing to maintain body warmth.

Reassure and Comfort: Offer reassurance to the injured individual. Keep them calm while awaiting medical help.

Share Important Information: Provide emergency responders with any relevant information about the injured person, such as medical conditions or allergies.

Steer clear of food and water: It may not be appropriate to give food or water to the injured person during future medical treatments.

Remember, these precautions are general guidelines, and the specific circumstances of the accident may require adjustments.
