Can You Drive Your Car After a Crash?
The first thing you need to do is figure out if you can safely drive your vehicle. You want to make sure your hood can close. If it doesn’t close, don’t drive. Then you need to check to make sure your vehicle isn’t leaking any fluids. If you are, then you need to call a tow truck. If you drive with leaking fluids it could damage your car engine. Some other things you need to do is ensure your mirrors are intact. Also, make sure your headlights and taillights are working, and does the steering and braking system feel right? You want to make sure those are working before you start driving.
