Description

Art. 44 para. 2 pt. 1 of the Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2005, No. 108, item 908 with subsequent amendments); Guidelines of the Polish Resuscitation Council (http://www.prc.krakow.pl/2010/)
Explanation

Correct answer: Yes

Yes, the person reporting the accident should provide their details. This makes the report more credible and allows the dispatcher to make contact again, for example, if the call is disconnected or if the location needs to be clarified. However, remember to first provide the most important information: the location of the incident and the number of casualties, and to give your details at the end of the call when the operator asks for them.
