SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

GSA's Office of Government-wide Policy is announcing the availability of Standard Form 94, Statement of Witness that is publicly available on http://www.gsa.gov/​forms. This form will be used to collect information from witnesses reporting accidents and/or damage to Federal Fleet Vehicles. Standard Form (SF) 94 provides additional accounts of motor vehicle accidents that supplement statements made by a motor vehicle operator. Use of the SF 94 is prescribed in Federal Management Regulation, 41 CFR 102-34.290(b) and Federal Property Management Regulations, 41 CFR 101-39.401(b). The SF 94 is usually completed at the time of an accident involving a motor vehicle owned or leased by the Government.

The SF 94 is an essential part of the investigation of motor vehicle accidents, especially those involving the public with a potential for claims against the United States. It is a vital piece of information in lawsuits and provides the Assistant United States Attorneys with a written statement to refresh recollection of accidents, as necessary.
