    How To Be Prepared For An Accident

    It’s almost a fact of life that you are going to have a motor vehicle accident at some point.  Hopefully, you never have a serious accident, but according to this Nissan dealership’s team in Drexel Hill, PA, it is a good idea to be prepared for any accidents before they happen.  Here are some things for you to think about so when the time comes, you are as prepared as possible.

    Some of the things you should always travel with, in case of an accident:

    • First-Aid Kit: This will let you tend to small cuts, bruises or bumps
    • Pen and Notepad: To take notes and record the other driver’s information
    • A cell phone, which you’re probably carrying around in your pocket or purse

    Here’s what to do once an accident has happened:

    1. Move your vehicle. As soon as safety possible, move your vehicle to a safe area to prevent it from being rammed into by other vehicles. It is tempting to think that since a crash occurred that all “evidence should be preserved” and nothing needs to get moved. The reality, however, is that you want to reduce the risk of another accident and move your vehicle off to where it is safe.
    2. Put on your hazard lights. Your hazard light (emergency flashers) switch is typically located near your steering column, or on the dash. It often is a small red or orange button with a triangular icon on it. Put them on immediately to signal to everybody that they should pay attention to the car because something is wrong. It will also warn people to stay out of the way.
    3. Dial 911. Whenever you get into an accident, it is very important to have the police come and take care of things. That is their job and they know what to do. When the police arrive they will take over.  They’ll document the accident, take care of any issues and control traffic.
    4. Exit your car, if it seems safe. Make sure that all is clear, then check to see if anyone has been hurt. Check the other cars involved and see how everyone else is doing. If things are not well for others, you can alert the police when they arrive. And again, don’t worry about the arrival of the police—they are there just to do their job.
    5. Begin taking pictures. This might sound obnoxious but the more pictures you can take, the better the outcome of your situation. These pictures can help the cops when they investigate and your insurance company will likely want to see them.
    6. Once you’re back home, contact your insurance company. You may want to call your insurance agent, especially if this is the first accident that you have been in; the agent will walk you through everything. You may be able to file a claim online, if your company permits it and you feel comfortable doing so.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
