Questions Learners Have About Collisions & Emergencies

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

What are the first steps after a minor collision in Ireland?

After ensuring safety, you should stop, switch off your engine, turn on hazard lights, and assess any injuries. If safe, move vehicles to prevent further obstruction and exchange details with other parties involved.

When should I call 999 or 112 after an incident on Irish roads?

You should call 999 or 112 immediately if there are injuries, serious damage, if a vehicle is blocking the road dangerously, or if you suspect a driver is under the influence. Always prioritise calling for help in genuine emergencies.

What details must I exchange after a collision in Ireland?

You must exchange your name, address, insurance details, and vehicle registration number with all parties involved. If a third party's property is damaged and the owner isn't present, you must report it to An Garda Síochána.

How do I warn other traffic about a collision scene in Ireland?

Use your vehicle's hazard warning lights. If available and safe to do so, place a warning triangle at least 45 metres (about 147 feet) behind your vehicle on the same side of the road, facing oncoming traffic.

Is basic first aid relevant for the Irish Driver Theory Test?
