When you happen upon an accident on the road, do you ever stop (to help or stare); or do you usually keep going?

I keep going unless it looks like help might be needed.

Re: Accident scenes
I hate it when I have to sit in traffic because everyone has to slow down and look. Especially when it's on the other side of the highway.

Re: Accident scenes
I'd slow down and be nosy for a second, but I keep going.

Re: Accident scenes
I do not want to see the blood, my husband knows I don't want to see the blood so he keeps moving as fast as traffic will allow. We have never come upon the scene of an accident that didn't already have help. We have no first aid training so we wouldn't be much help anyway. Our son however has had extensive training and worked ambulances for years. He also has been in situations where he was the only one who could help until the ambulance arrived. He has saved a couple of lives outside of his ambulance work. So his training really has helped.

Called for help when no one was there but nothing much beyond that.

Re: Accident scenes
We see accidents all the time. We always call 911 if no emergency vehicles are present. We have stopped before when we literally saw it happen.

Re: Accident scenes
Keep going for the most part. I've never seen an accident where help wasn't already on site, I'd call if they needed me to.

Re: Accident scenes
I keep going since most of the time help is there already.
