Questions Learners Have About Accident Protocol & 112

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Accident Protocol & 112, including how questions match the official theory exam in Iceland, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is the PAS protocol in traffic accident response?

The PAS protocol stands for Protect, Alert, Soccour. It outlines the crucial steps to take at an accident scene: first, protect yourself and the scene; second, alert emergency services by calling 112; and third, soccour (assist) any injured persons, always prioritising your own safety.

What is the emergency number in Iceland for traffic accidents?

The emergency number in Iceland for all emergencies, including traffic accidents, is 112. You should call this number immediately after securing the scene and ensuring your own safety, especially if there are injuries or significant damage.

Do I have a legal duty to assist at an accident scene in Iceland?

Yes, Icelandic law includes a 'duty to assist' (hjálparskylda), meaning drivers are legally obligated to provide reasonable assistance at an accident scene where people are injured or in danger, provided it is safe to do so without endangering yourself further. Your own safety is always the first priority.

How should I use a warning triangle at an accident scene in Iceland?

A warning triangle should be placed safely on the road to alert oncoming traffic. In Iceland, the exact distance varies based on speed limits and road type, but generally, it should be placed far enough away (e.g., 50-100 metres) to give drivers ample warning, especially on high-speed roads, bends, or poor visibility conditions. Always wear a high-visibility vest when placing it.

Why is 'rubbernecking' dangerous near an accident scene?

Rubbernecking, or slowing down to look at an accident, is extremely dangerous because it distracts drivers from the road ahead, causes sudden braking, and significantly increases the risk of secondary collisions. It also impedes the flow of traffic, hindering emergency services from reaching the scene quickly.
