MCOLES State Licensing Practice Exam 2025 – Comprehensive Test Prep

In the context of accident reporting, the UD-10 form is used to document crashes involving motor vehicles. In the scenario where a moped strikes a pedestrian, it is essential to account for both the vehicle and the individual involved in the incident.

The correct approach to determining the number of units is that each significant party involved in the collision counts as a separate unit. In this case, there are two primary units: the moped as the vehicle and the pedestrian as the individual affected by the crash. Therefore, it is appropriate to report two units on the UD-10.

While one might mistakenly think that a moped may not count as a separate entity from the pedestrian or that the pedestrian alone should be considered for reporting, the established guidelines demand that each unique party involved in a collision is noted for clarity and record-keeping accuracy. This ensures that proper information is available for any further investigation or legal proceedings that may arise from the incident.
