Newer cars all have air bags and they will be deployed and protect your
upper body. In most cases this will save your life, if you were wearing a
seat belt.
After the car has stopped and the air bag is deployed, it is imperative to get out of the car. If it is at all possible, crawl out of the car immediately. Some smoking cars will explode.
Once you are on the ground, lay still. Do not attempt to get up and walk. Any car crash will alert people and people will run to your aid. Courtesy drivers will call the police and an ambulance. Try to remember how, when and where the accident happened and make a visual description in your mind.
