Describe the variables to consider when determining the of taking measurements at a vehicle collision scene Determine appropriate reference points/lines to use when taking measurements at a vehicle collision scene Distinguish between primary collision factor and associated collision factor LEARNING NEED Evidence collected at a collision scene can be rendered useless or inadmissible if it is not properly documented. Peace officers must recognize and follow standardized documentation formats for traffic collisions to ensure that the evidence they collect is understandable and usable by other officers, and other agencies. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Describe the components of standardized reporting formats used to document a collision Distinguish between the types of collision documentation, including: Collision investigation format Collision report format Prepare components of a traffic collision report, including: Description of injuries Identification of involved parties and vehicles Time and location of collision events Chronology of the collision events Elements unique to hit-and-run and driving-under-the-influence collisions Primary and associated collision factors Area(s) of impact Scene sketch Distinguish between information to be included in the narrative of a collision investigation format under each of the following categories: Facts
