In an accident we must not change the position of the victims or the vehicles, except when not doing so would be dangerous for the injured or for traffic. If you do not have basic first-aid knowledge and there is no risk to the victims, it is best not to handle them, to avoid more serious harm such as spinal cord injuries.
