Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Provide casualties with first-aid to the best of his ability and training, call the rescue forces and wait in place until they arrive.
A driver involved in an accident with casualties must stop, give first aid as far as his ability and training allow, call the rescue services and stay at the scene until they arrive. Leaving the scene, even to drive to a police station, is not allowed. Simply exchanging details or reporting later is not enough when people are hurt, because saving lives comes first.
