Crowdsourcing accident information

Given the ever increasing traffic situation in major cities, the incidents of traffic related accidents is on the rise. Can you use a mobile service (website/sms/application) to crowdsource information regarding the time and location of the accident to the relevant emergency service provider? How sustainable would such a solution be?

    I want to add to this idea. Is it possible to somehow collect information of drivers/cars involved in hit and run situation? Maybe somehow taking the picture of the culprit or license plate of car so that they can be captured and fined.

    Interesting idea, how would you ensure that such a system of identifying hit and run drivers is not misused?

    why not integrate this bit to the general traffic updates?
