| Summary of Issue | Currently, there is no documented inspection procedure for an Advanced Post-Crash Inspection (APCI/Level IX). A certified inspection procedure will help ensure more consistent data and uniformity in post-crash inspection processes across jurisdictions. It will also align with the course curriculum and provide consistency with the inspection procedure provided by CVSA, as with all other roadside certification types. |
| Justification or Need | Inconsistency and a lack of roadside guidance in APCI processes lead to breakdowns in information gathering, report writing, and courtroom testimony. |
| Request for Action | Recommended APCI/Level IX Procedure, see attached. |
