Vehicular Accidents If the driver is involved in a vehicle accident or is the first to arrive at the scene of an accident, assist any injured persons per First Aid/CPR training. The driver should radio or call their dispatcher and their respective supervisor. The dispatcher will notify appropriate emergency responders. If the driver is unable to contact their dispatcher or supervisor, contact emergency services (911) immediately. The following information should be provided to the dispatcher or emergency response personnel: • Address or location of accident • Number of persons involved • Injuries • Nature of accident Move vehicles out of traffic if it is safe to do so and law enforcement allows. Turn on warning lights or place traffic control devices if necessary. Complete the Vehicle Accident Report Forms and obtain a copy of the police report prior to leaving the scene. Non-Vehicular Accidents Accidents of this nature that involve real or suspected property or bodily damage must be reported to the dispatcher immediately. The dispatcher shall notify the appropriate agency for follow up and investigation. Spills The primary concern with a spill is the risk of adverse impacts to the public through direct contact or the environment, e.g., surface water bodies. Regardless of the spill size, immediate action should be taken to contain the spill and the driver should not leave the site until the spill is adequately cleaned up. All spills should be reported to the City and any appropriate regulating agencies. A starting point for reporting is provi ded on the last page, however additional reporting may be required. Minor spills may only require a shovel for cleanup. Major spills may require mobilization of trucks, loaders, vactor trucks, water trucks, and temporary erosion control measures.
