How to Get Rapid Roadside Assistance After Minor Accidents in Malaysia

First Things First: Safety and Quick Move-Off

• If collision is minor and car is drivable, signal, hazards on, move to safe shoulder/lay‑by before any discussion or calls.
• Check for injuries, call 999 if needed; don’t move injured persons without training.

Document What Matters (Fast, Clear, Organized)

• Take wide and close‑up photos: positions, damage, debris, skid marks, signs, landmarks; save dashcam footage at once.
• Exchange politely: names, contacts, licence nos., plates, insurer info, witnesses; avoid admitting fault.
• Note date, time, location, and weather conditions while fresh.

Police Report: Don’t Skip It

In Malaysia, file within 24 hours — it’s a legal requirement and key for insurance claims. File at nearest traffic police; for injuries or urgent matters, contact Royal Malaysia Police or 999 immediately.

Avoid Common Pitfalls at the Scene

• Beware unsolicited tows; verify panel status with insurer or use your trusted contact to avoid high charges or detours.
• If privately settling, still notify insurer and keep full documentation.
• On expressways if disabled, use official patrols for traffic safety; stay visible with hazards on.
