A traffic accident report is a legal document that’s created by a law enforcement officer who responds to the scene of an accident. The information in a crash report will detail how and why the accident occurred and which party the police officer believes was negligent. Other information in this report can include the names and contact details for all parties involved, the time, date, and location of the accident, a diagram of the crash site, insurance, and registration information, license plate numbers, and driver’s license numbers, a description of any injuries sustained in the accident, a description of vehicle damage and personal property damage, any traffic citations issued for the violation of traffic laws, any arrest made, anything that may have contributed to the accident such as potholes, construction, debris on the road, or road and weather conditions.
In most cases, the only parties eligible to receive a copy of an unredacted traffic report can include all parties involved in the accident, personal injury lawyers, insurance companies, vehicle owners, and the parent or legal guardian of an accident victim who was under the age of 18.
If you’re involved in a motor vehicle crash that was not your fault, you may be entitled to compensation to cover the cost of all accident-related expenses. A personal injury lawyer will use the information in a traffic accident report to help strengthen your claim for compensation and ensure you receive a fair settlement. Important information in a crash report that can help you receive the financial compensation you deserve includes the police officer’s findings regarding how and why the accident occurred and which driver they believed was negligent, any arrests made, any citations issued for the violation of traffic laws, a diagram of the accident scene, and a description of your injuries and vehicle or personal property damage.
