This manual establishes the key points of a large scale accident investigation. An investigation of this caliber is broken up into pre-investigation preparation, notification and initial response, on-scene activities, identifying responsibilities, post-on-scene activities, etc. By laying out the step-by-step processes by which the transportation industry may investigate large scale accidents, the room for error in consequent courses of action drops exorbitantly. Within a cyber-context, laying out a process by which private and public sector entities investigate cyber incidents would mirror the same result.
