Methods of facilitating emergency assistance

A computer system for responding to vehicle accidents, the system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more non-transitory memories coupled to the one or more processors and storing executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computer system to:
• collect telematics data associated with a vehicle at a time of a vehicle accident;
• determine one or more emergency response actions or recommendations based upon the telematics data;
• generate a confirmation request message including an indication of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations;
• transmit the confirmation request message to a mobile device associated with the vehicle;
• and
• receive an indication of an accident response to the confirmation request message from the mobile device, wherein the accident response is based upon an interaction with the mobile device and indicates at least one of:
• confirmation of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations, modification of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations, and rejection of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions for responding to vehicle accidents that, when executed by at least one processor of a computer system, cause the computer system to:

• collect telematics data associated with a vehicle at a time of a vehicle accident;
• determine one or more emergency response actions or recommendations based upon the telematics data;
• generate a confirmation request message including an indication of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations;
• transmit the confirmation request message to a mobile device associated with the vehicle;
• and
• receive an indication of an accident response to the confirmation request from the mobile device, wherein the accident response is based upon an interaction with the mobile device and indicates at least one of:
• confirmation of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations, modification of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations, and rejection of the one or more emergency response actions or recommendations.
