If you were involved in a motor vehicle crash and sustained injuries or property damage, you may be eligible to pursue compensation in an auto insurance injury claim or personal injury lawsuit. To be eligible to receive compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, and other damages, you must prove the other driver was negligent, and that you sustained injuries or property damage due to the negligent actions of the other driver.
A car crash report can help strengthen your insurance claim, thanks to information, such as:
The responding police officer’s opinion regarding who was negligent in the auto accident, any citations that were issued
Witness statements
A diagram of the auto accident scene
A description of any type of personal injury you sustained in the automobile accident
Any arrests made or citations issued (Speeding, failure to wear a seatbelt, failure to use signal, DUI, DWI, etc.).
An experienced personal injury lawyer can use a detailed police report to negotiate a fair settlement from an insurance company to help an auto accident victim receive the compensation they deserve to cover the cost of medical treatment, lost wages, and more.
Incident reports are not admissible in court. While your personal injury attorney cannot use a crash report as evidence when filing a personal injury lawsuit, they can use the information in the police report during an investigation to build a stronger case. For example, if the other driver was arrested for a DUI or DWI, or they received a citation for speeding, your attorney can use this information as a foundation for their defense, exploring the other motorist’s criminal charges, speaking with the police officer that issued the traffic citation or made the arrest.
They can also obtain names of witnesses listed in the traffic report and contact them to ask questions regarding the collision and the events that transpired.
