When responding to an accident scene, drivers should immediately begin documenting the incident with photos and video from multiple angles. It’s crucial to capture the entire scene, including road conditions, weather, signage, and any relevant details that could impact the case. Documentation should be thorough but obtained safely and without interfering with emergency responders or other officials. This evidence can be invaluable during the DataQ process and may help protect both the driver and the company.
