1. Live electrical wires: Downed power lines or damaged electrical equipment can pose a serious electrocution risk. Avoid touching any wires or objects in contact with them, and call the power company immediately.
2. Leaking fuel or other hazardous materials: Gasoline, oil, and other fluids from damaged vehicles can be flammable and toxic. Avoid contact with these substances, and keep sources of ignition (such as cigarettes or open flames) away from the area.
3. Unstable vehicles: Damaged vehicles may be unstable and at risk of falling or rolling over. Stay clear of these vehicles, and do not attempt to move them unless you are trained to do so.
4. Glass and debris: Broken glass and other debris from the accident can pose a cutting hazard. Wear sturdy shoes and avoid walking through areas with broken glass.
