Interactive accident checklist

The same list we ask people to keep in the glovebox, in a form you can tick through on the phone while it is happening. Your progress stays on this page and is never sent anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this offline?

Once the page is open it works without a connection — everything runs locally. If you expect to be somewhere without coverage, print it before you travel.

Does it save what I ticked?

No, deliberately. Nothing is stored on your device or anywhere else. Reloading the page starts a clean list.

What if I cannot do everything on the list?

Do the photographs. Everything else can be reconstructed afterwards; a photograph nobody took cannot.
