Correct answer
The initial period immediately after the crash.
The early period after a crash when prompt, appropriate care is especially important. Traditionally associated with the first hour, it is not an exact deadline guaranteeing survival or a reason to wait. It does not mean ambulance response time or journey time to hospital. Check safety, call 112 promptly and follow instructions.
