If involved in an incident where someone is injured and you don't produce your insurance certificate at the time, how soon must you report the incident to the police?

• A. Seven days
• B. 24 hours
• C. 72 hours
• D. 48 hours

Answer: (B)

When a road incident involves injury and you’re unable to show your insurance certificate at the scene, you must report the incident to the police within 24 hours. This 24-hour window ensures authorities are notified promptly and that insurance and liability matters can be properly handled. The other timeframes are longer than required and wouldn’t meet the legal obligation.
