Yesterday a motor vehicle accident occurred between a catering van and a ramp agent driving a tug pulling a cart. I was driving as the team leader was coming towards my direction. As he was coming forward he didn't realize the van was coming out already. Once he realized he then tried to avoid the collision but in that instance the cart on the bag of the tug swerved back in. When the cart came back in that's when it collided with the van. Immediately as I see this take place I notified [a supervisor] over the radio and told him that an accident had just taken place. When he came over to my gate he asked (3) questions! Did I see what happened? What had taken place? Who was at fault? I then gave him the run down as to what had taken place. I went back to uploading and pushing out my flight. After [pushback] a Supervisor was still at the gate and I asked him if he had wanted my statement in which he then told me that it was stated that there were no witnesses to this incident. He then took me to the office to write out my statement.
