How to enable or disable crash detection on Apple Watch

Apple Watch Crash Detection can detect if you indulge in a car crash or accident. After a crash is detected, the watch will tap (vibrate) on your wrist and show an Emergency SOS slider on the screen. If you do not respond for 20 seconds, it will automatically call emergency services with the required information.

It also alerts emergency contacts that you had a car crash with your location. And if you have added your Medical ID, the watch will show a Medical ID slider on the screen for any emergency responder to see your medical details.
