Law enforcement agencies do not make decisions in road accident cases.

Police officers perform the following actions:

  • draw up a protocol on an administrative offense in the field of ensuring road traffic safety;

  • draw up a diagram of the accident site, which is signed by the participants in the accident and the police officer himself;

  • select the explanations of the participants of the adventure and witnesses (if they are available);

  • in cases where, as a result of a traffic accident, its participants are injured, an investigative-operational group is called to conduct investigative actions at the scene of the traffic accident in accordance with the requirements of the Code of Criminal Procedure of Ukraine;

  • perform other necessary actions.

The decision on the road accident case itself is taken by the court in the form of a resolution or verdict (in the case of criminal proceedings).

It is possible to challenge a court decision or verdict by filing an appropriate appeal.
