Response
Sates of Jersey Police:
A
Jersey has numerous narrow and single track roads, many without footpaths and bordered by granite walls. Wing mirror clashes with other vehicles or a boundary wall is a common collision for motorists. Two of the above incidents involved wing mirror clashes.
B
Information not held. When a police vehicle is involved in a road traffic collision (RTC), a separate log is created. If the vehicle is on route to an incident and an RTC occurs, this may be added to the original call log. Should an RTC occur after attending an emergency incident, that fact may not be recorded on the police incident log so no accurate information is available.
