It's been a sticky for ages. It's tres bon advice, mostly.

I take issue with the 'move to a safe position' bit

From my experience, getting up, off the road means NOBODY WILL HELP YOU. This reduces the chances of getting witness details and increases the chances of you having to look after your bike and stuff whilst potentially suffering from shock and / or a serious injury.

It should read 'if you are in no immediate danger, do not move. Ask for help'.

Also needs a search and replace for 'accident' and replace with 'collision'.

first rule of any collision, lie on floor until police and ambulance are called. That way the accident is immediately reported to the police. Driver has to stay at the scene and you'll probably go to A+E and will have medical evidence of any injuries sustained during the collison.
