Difference between Crash Scene and Crash Site

Today I found out the difference between the term "crash scene" and "crash site". For normal people, "heck, why should I know those things". I hope I'm just a normal person. However, during a road crash inquiry report write-up, I cannot easily neglected such important thing. Thanks to Mr. Zulhilmi from MIROS Publication Unit for highlighting this to me. I'm such a forgetful person, so hopefully by putting this new info at my blog, thus can remind me when I need it.

Working at the crash site, not the crash scene. True? But the "smell" was still there...

A crash SITE: a place where an accident had occurred. At a crash SITE, the wrecked vehicles, the dead and the injured have been removed.

A crash SCENE: a place where an accident had occurred whereby the dead, the injured and the wreck have not been removed yet.

Thanks for this post. I really needed to know the difference between site and scene. You kept me from making a big mistake in a narrative I'm working on.
