  • C.Ask another driver to falsify the report for you
  • D.Tell your employer you are shaken, accept medical evaluation if offered, and do not resume driving until you are fit and cleared
Correct answer

D. Tell your employer you are shaken, accept medical evaluation if offered, and do not resume driving until you are fit and cleared

Why

Shock and stress reactions can appear well after the impact and can quietly wreck concentration and judgment. Reporting how you feel and getting checked protects the public, your record, and your own health.
