This means your traffic citizen report may be unavailable for several weeks or months.
Minneapolis and St. Paul accident reports are $6-$15 per report.
If you sustained injuries in a motor vehicle accident you may be pursuing a personal injury claim or personal injury lawsuit. Obtaining your citizen crash report as soon as possible after your accident can help prove the other driver should be held liable for damages. An accident report includes important information such as the responding police officer’s opinion regarding who they believe caused the accident. Additionally, if a crime was committed or traffic laws were violated, the accident report will also contain this information. Other useful information in a traffic citizen report that can help strengthen a personal injury insurance claim includes a description of personal injuries and vehicle damage, a description of the accident scene, accident details such as contributing factors to the collision including bad weather or poor road conditions, and more. An accident attorney can use the public information report as leverage to negotiate a full and fair settlement for your injuries, lost wages, vehicle damage, and other losses.
