WHY USE AN INDEPENDENT ACCIDENT INVESTIGATOR?

Investipol has specialized in transport and logistics since 2007. Our investigators hold unique training from the SAPS Collision Combatting Unit and internationally, specializing in heavy motor vehicle collisions.

We strongly advise that no driver involved in a serious crash provides formal statements to the Police at the scene — the legal requirement is to be in sound and sober senses when making an affidavit, which accident trauma may compromise.

ROUTE RISK ASSESSMENTS

A Route Risk Assessment (RRA) from Investipol is a rigorous, field-based evaluation of every hazard, threat and compliance requirement on a transport route — conducted to the exacting standards required by South Africa's major fuel transporters, insurers and regulators. The output is a practical, legally defensible document your operation can act on immediately.

🗺️
Field Survey & Route Intelligence
Every RRA begins with a physical traversal of the route. Our assessors document conditions, infrastructure and environment first-hand — supplemented by intelligence from SAPS, industry bodies and Investipol's own incident database built over nearly two decades of transport sector work.
  • Physical route traversal & GPS mapping
  • Road condition, gradient & geometry assessment
  • Historical incident overlay & crime hotspot mapping
  • SAPS & law enforcement intelligence liaison
  • Safe rest stops, fuel points & safe-haven locations
  • High-risk intersection & overtaking zone identification
  • Seasonal, time-of-day & weather risk variation
  • Bridge, tunnel & load restriction mapping
⚠️
Risk Analysis & Mitigation Planning
All identified hazards and threats are classified, rated and matched with specific, prioritised control measures. Mitigations are practical and implementable — not generic recommendations. Each control is assessed for cost-effectiveness and assigned a responsible party and timeframe.
  • Hijacking, robbery & cargo theft risk rating
  • Hazmat & environmental spill risk assessment
  • Time-of-travel & convoy protocol recommendations
  • No-stop zone & safe stopping procedure design
  • Geo-fencing, tracking & communication requirements
