My original post was me repeating something I'd read on here from another member. I did do a search so I could link to it but I couldn't find it.
I'd be up for it, but as I read on the COTAG website they vet their members so that's me fooked. The best I can do is offer my number to the NHS/Ambulance service and Police for if and when they need any help. Knowing the police, once they type my name into their fancy computer they wouldn't be so keen on my help.

Collision is correct. At least 5 or 6 years. And you're quite right - trumpton usually turn up, have a debate, do the job slowly in the name of H&S, have another debate then say it's all down to plod!
Crash is a nonsense. ACPO encourages the use of the word collision or the reasons given above - accident is insensitive to those that lose loved ones, and implies there is no blame. There almost always is. That's a national directive last I heard. Old sweats continue with RTA or TA, and some forces do their own thing. It's only semantics at the end of the day.
