Protect yourself in an emergency
Kentucky has a Quick Clearance Law (KRS 189.580) meaning –
If you are involved in a crash:
if no one is visibly injured, move your vehicle to the shoulder or off of the interstate or parkway
call the police
exchange information with the other party
If you have a disabled vehicle:
move your vehicle off the roadway if possible
turn on emergency flashers
to request aid — tie something white or bright to your antenna or window or raise the hood
if you are unable to move your vehicle from the roadway — stand away from the vehicle
keep your arms and legs moving to stay warm
To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning if trapped in snow — keep the exhaust pipe clear. Run your vehicle with the windows partially open and use the heat for 10 minutes every hour.
