# Reporting an accident and following its stages

> Report an accident on site with the place, weather, injuries, police, third parties and photos, then complete the follow-up stages assigned to you.

**Who can use this:** Agency employee  
**In the app:** Tasks › Accident report  
**URL:** https://docs.drivego.thesuperplatform.com/en/guides/employee/accidents  
**Updated on:** 2026-10-25

An accident starts a nine-stage follow-up, from the report to the car being rentable again. In the field, you file the report with all useful evidence, then complete the stages assigned to you: documents, technical inspection and final inspection. The other stages, which involve the insurer and costs, belong to the agency managers.

> **Safety first**
>
> Get people to safety and call emergency services if needed. The report in DriveGo comes after.

**After you save:** the car becomes Accident and is no longer offered for rent, with no end date. The accident follow-up opens at stage 1, in progress. The agency managers are notified at once by notification and email, even during quiet hours. Without signal, the report goes when the network returns, as "Accident report".

## Steps

1. Open **Accident report** and choose the car, then the booking if the car was rented.
2. Enter the date, time and place; let the app take the location.
3. Enter the weather and describe what happened.
4. Tick **Injuries**, **Police attended** and **Third party involved** as needed, and complete the blocks that open.
5. Take the photos and videos. See [Photos and videos](https://docs.drivego.thesuperplatform.com/en/guides/employee/camera).
6. Tap **Send report**.

## The accident follow-up

**Accident pipeline task screen**

| Field | Required | Values or format | Example | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Accident | Shown | Accident number | ACC-2025-00128 | The accident concerned. |
| Stage | Shown | Number and name of the stage, 1 to 9 | 4, Technical inspection | The stage assigned to you. |
| Expected date | Shown | Date | 2026-11-06 | When the stage should be finished. You are reminded that day if it is not. |
| Status | Yes | In progress, Completed, Blocked | In progress | "In progress" if the stage takes time, "Completed" when done, "Blocked" when something stops you. |

| Attachments | No | Photos or documents | Inspection report | The evidence of the stage. |
| **Save** | Yes | Button | | Saves the status, notes and attachments. |

**After you save:** a stage can only be completed when all earlier stages are. When your stage is completed, the next stage can start. When a manager completes stage 9, the car becomes Available again and the accident is resolved.

## The nine stages

| Stage | Name | Who can complete it |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Accident reported | Employee or manager |
| 2 | Documents collected | Employee or manager |
| 3 | Insurance notified | Agency manager or owner |
| 4 | Technical inspection | Employee or manager |
| 5 | Repair quotation | Agency manager or owner |
| 6 | Insurance approval | Agency manager or owner |
| 7 | Repair in progress | Agency manager or owner |
| 8 | Final inspection | Employee or manager |
| 9 | Ready to rent | Agency manager or owner |

Only the agency owner can skip stages, with a required note. See [the accident follow-up](https://docs.drivego.thesuperplatform.com/en/reference/accident-pipeline).

## Troubleshooting

| Situation | Cause | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| "Your account cannot perform this action." on a stage | Stages 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 are for managers. | Add your notes and tell your manager. |
| The stage refuses to complete | An earlier stage is not completed. | Complete the earlier stages first, in order. |
| No signal at the accident site | The report is kept on the phone. | Send it anyway: it goes when the network returns. |
| No location | Location is refused or unavailable. | Describe the place precisely in the **Place** field. |
