Driver's License Test Prep
Nevada Practice Crash Procedures

According to the Nevada manual, after a crash, what information must you exchange with the other drivers involved?

  1. A.
    Your name, phone number, and the name of your insurance company.
  2. B.
    Only your driver license number and license plate number.
  3. C.
    Only your insurance card, since law enforcement will collect the rest.
  4. D.
    Your name, address, driver license number, registration, and insurance information. Correct
The Why

The answer is "Your name, address, driver license number, registration, and insurance information."

The manual sets a five-item exchange after any crash: name, address, driver license number, registration, and insurance information. Trimming the list to contact details, identifiers alone, or a lone insurance card does not satisfy the duty; every item must be handed to the other drivers involved before you leave the scene.

Why the others miss

The traps in the wrong answers

A. Your name, phone number, and the name of your insurance company.

Drops driver license number, registration, and address, and adds a phone number the manual does not list among the required items. This answer applies the casual contact swap people use for a parking-lot bump instead of the five specific items the manual names.

B. Only your driver license number and license plate number.

Reduces the exchange to two identifiers and omits address, registration, and insurance information that the manual also requires. This answer trusts a DMV lookup on either identifier to hand the other driver everything else the manual lists.

C. Only your insurance card, since law enforcement will collect the rest.

The driver must exchange name, address, driver license number, and registration on top of insurance information, whether or not police respond. This answer treats the officer's crash report as a substitute for the driver-to-driver information exchange.
