In some countries, like the UK, it is the law that you must call the police. In the US you don't have to, but if you see a bad accident and it doesn't look like anyone is helping yet, you should do so.

What do you do after an accident?
Don't run is the first thing; make sure everyone is okay and out of harms way; out of the traffic - call for the police. Exchange driver's license information, insurance information. If anyone is hurt, call 911. DO NOT LEAVE THE SCENE until the police have told you it is okay or if it is a minor accident and you have not called the police and you have all exchanged info and you can drive away safely, then do so and immediately go and call your insurance co. But a police report should be filed on ALL ACCIDENTS NO MATTER WHAT.

What should you do if you are involved in a minor crash and your vehicle is blocking the flow of traffic?
Here in Ontario, if the crash exceeds an estimated $500 you must call the police and wait for them to arrive. If you move your car, you might be charged with fleeing the scene of an accident. So, unless it's a minor paint scratch you're safer to call the police. Ignore anyone honking or yelling at you; you'll be doing what the law says you should.
