WHAT IS ACCIDENT Management?
Accident management includes the process of using telematics data and accident reporting to understand what happened before, during, and after a collision.
Telematics data is highly valuable for fleet managers because it provides an accurate, scientific record of events. This makes it possible to go beyond eyewitness testimony and gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of accidents.
Digital Accident Reporting
A digital accident report provides a defined and repeatable data collection process. It reduces errors during a stressful situation and significantly expedites getting the data to decision makers. A faster response in a hazmat situation can save a company hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars.
HOW TO USE FLEETISTICS FOR ACCIDENT RECONSTRUCTION and reporting
Time is of the essence
Imagine you have a rollover and spill 500 or 5000 gallons of toxic liquid. Knowing this took place in real-time enables a much more efficient and cost-effective response. The sooner the hazmat team gets onsite, the sooner the hazmat cleanup begins, and the lower the financial and environmental impact.
The Fleetistics CrewChief mobile app includes an Accident Reporting form. The digital form provides standardized data collection of key information. The form prompts drivers to collect the right information in a stressful situation.
