Find the cars in 3D space. If they overlap, there's been an accident.

Seriously though, we can't solve the problem for you. If you have a solution that's not working we can help. If you have ideas and aren't sure which is best we can give advice, but this is far too open ended.

How about using google? This is one of the most heavily researched topics when it comes to traffic analysis and computer vision. Every single conference out there has a new proposal for the ultimate solution. As to the remark of @Tetragramm, 3D is always better and more accurate but also computationally more demanding than 2D. I have seen quite nice incident reporting systems using only 2D data, because we have a known relation between the camera and the ground plane, which leads automatically to 2.5D.
