It is rare that one of us – especially drivers – does not have a traffic accident, whether caused or damaged, this is normal when we are on the road most of the time.
But our behavior after the accident determines many things and consequences, especially on the part of the culprit. Some make a mistake that is much greater than just causing, which is fleeing from the scene of the accident!
Given the importance of the driver’s position, especially after the accident, the law imposed obligations that he must abide by, in Article No. 5 of Federal Law No. 21 of 1995 amended by Law 2007, which states that “every driver of a motorized vehicle is obligated to give his personal and vehicle data.” For any policeman present when an accident occurred that resulted in or caused harm to a person, animal, or property belonging to others, and to provide all necessary and possible assistance to provide first aid to the injured, and to inform the nearest police station of this accident, within a period not exceeding six hours, unless it was for a delay in Reporting is an acceptable excuse, in the absence of a policeman during the accident.”
Thus, the law was keen to detail what the driver must do after the accident, because of its great importance, and its consequences, especially in serious accidents that result in casualties, as his behavior can be a reason to save a person’s life if he adheres to his legal duty, or his death if he does not stop to help him!
The law defines the penalty for this behavior in Article No. 49, which states that “he shall be punished by imprisonment and a fine of no less than 20,000 dirhams, or by one of these two penalties, for anyone who commits acts, including not standing without an acceptable excuse when a traffic accident occurs from him or him, that resulted from it.” Injuries to people. Despite the spread of surveillance cameras and advanced control techniques everywhere, this behavior is repeated by drivers who are always arrested, and the first thing someone does is to go to the nearest workshop or car garage to hide the effects of the accident, but the law did not neglect that either, as Placing legal responsibility on the garages that are involved in this crime. Article 41 stipulates that “no person or garage may repair any motor vehicle that has the effects of an accident without the approval of the licensing authority.”
The law obliges any person present at the scene of the accident to provide assistance to the victims, and to report directly what he saw. They result in injuries or deaths, because one second makes a difference in the life of the victim, and it might have been possible to save him, either from death or by alleviating his injury if the perpetrator had stopped to help him.
