  • If you’re in an accident don’t move the rental car from the road. First make sure no one in the car is injured. Next, check on the passengers in the other vehicle to make sure they’re not hurt. Then Call 115 immediately. They’ll dispatch an officer and medical personnel to the scene of the accident. Once the police arrives, wait for them to complete an accident report and give permission to move the car. Please also call Garage de Paarl at +597 8808277.
