The driver of the vehicle who finds that a car has overturned outside the road and there are injured persons, must stop, notify the police at the single emergency number 112 and, if necessary, transports the injured to the nearest medical unit.

The transportation of the victims to the hospital is normally carried out with an ambulance specially equipped for this purpose, with or without a doctor, depending on the condition of the victim, but most often the ambulance is accompanied by a doctor.

However, in the absence of other means of transport, if the condition of the victim allows, the transportation of the victim to the nearest medical unit able to provide the necessary medical assistance can be done by the driver of a vehicle who observes the respective event, or even by the driver of a vehicle involved in the respective accident, with the vehicle that caused the accident, the latter having the obligation to declare the personal identity data and the registration number of the driven vehicle, recorded in a special register, and to return immediately to the place of the accident, in which case leaving the place of the accident DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFENCE.
