Under S170(2) RTA 1988, which details must the driver provide?

• A. The driver's name and address, the owner's name and address, the registration number or ID number of the MPV, and insurance details (if personal injury).
• B. The colour of the vehicle and number of seats.
• C. The estimated speed at the time of the collision.
• D. The route planned for the next journey.

Answer: (A)

If a driver is involved in a road traffic incident, there’s a duty to share identifying and vehicle details to make sure the parties and insurers can be contacted and liability or claims can be pursued. Under S170(2) RTA 1988, the driver must provide their own name and address, the owner’s name and address (if different from the driver), the vehicle’s registration number (or ID number for the MPV), and insurance details, but only if there has been personal injury. This information ensures accountability and enables proper follow-up with insurers. Details such as the vehicle colour, number of seats, estimated speed, or planned route aren’t part of this mandatory disclosure.
