Answer: Park it. Secure the area. Stay there. Send someone else for help. When sending someone for help, give that person: A description of the emergency, Your exact location and direction of travel. Your name, the carrier's name, and the name of the community or city where your terminal is located. The proper shipping name, hazard class, and identification number of the hazardous materials, if you know them.
