Hide AdA Hampshire police spokesman said: '˜The new service has been designed based on extensive user research and uses proven technology that is already benefitting the public in London.
'˜Residents of Hampshire and Thames Valley are the first outside of the capital to benefit. This is part of a national project, driven by the Digital Public Contact programme, that is aimed at creating a Single Online Home benefitting people across the whole country. 101 is national, 999 is national, digital services should be the same.
'˜Early data from testing shows that reporting road traffic incidents online is proving convenient for the public.'
It is separate from a £32m over-budget new contact management system.
