Move person to fresh air.  Artificial respiration if needed.  Wash skin with soap and water or waterless cleaner.  Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes.  CALL PHYSICIAN!!

Comments:

The IARC Monographs (Vol. 35) reporting on mice painting studies states that there is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenity in experimental animals of extracts of some asphalts.  The same document states there there is inadequate evidence that asphalts alone are carcinogenic to humans.
