What must be done after collecting all accident data?

After collecting all accident data, the next critical step is to fill out the accident report and contact the accident desk. This process ensures that all necessary information is documented accurately and promptly, which is crucial for a thorough investigation and for keeping records aligned with agency protocols.

Filling out the accident report allows for a structured collection of facts surrounding the incident, including the time, location, parties involved, and any relevant observations. Reporting the incident to the accident desk is equally vital as it alerts the relevant authorities and initiates any required follow-up actions, such as additional investigations or safety assessments. This coordinated response is essential to maintaining safety on the transportation network and ensuring transparency in handling incidents.

This methodical approach underscores the importance of procedural adherence in accident situations to safeguard the interests of all parties involved, including passengers, operators, and the agency itself.
