Accidents and near accidents should be reported to identify hazards, prevent future incidents, and enhance safety protocols. Reporting these events helps organizations analyze patterns, implement corrective measures, and promote a culture of safety. Typically, reports should be submitted to a designated safety officer or department, and may also need to be communicated to relevant regulatory bodies, depending on the severity and nature of the incident. This process ensures accountability and continuous improvement in safety practices.
As in a civilian factory, all military accidents or potential accidents (near miss) should be written in the Accident Book, and investigated.
"There are roughly around 150,000 construction site accidents reported each year, 1,000 deaths due to construction accidents, this year 2011 there have been only 12 construction accidents reported to OSHA."
around 5,935,000 reported accidents in 2006

Criminal Assault
According to the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration, in 2008 the District of Columbia had the lowest amount of reported FATAL accidents (34). Alaska had 62 reported fatal car accidents and Rhode Island had 65 reported fatal car accidents. 2007 Data shows the Rate of Fatal Accidents per 100,000 registered vehicles was lowest in MA (7.57) and then RI (8.33)
to prevent more near misses and by extension, accidents. the number of near misses is proportional to the number of accidents. so less near misses = less accidents. yay!
It is to ensure the safety on the road in general. It is for ambulance/documentation perposes to report an accident, and it may help save a life because the person you had a near accident with may be intoxicated or a criminal.
