‘Work has far advanced’ to digitise accident reports – DVLA CEO

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) is advancing plans to digitise road accident reporting, with a proposed system requiring accident locations to be electronically captured before reports can be prepared.“Work has far advanced for the Authority to digitalise the road accident report,” he said.

Mr Kotey expressed concern about the existing reporting process, which he said allowed accident reports to be prepared remotely without officers necessarily documenting the scene of an incident.
