How to Obtain Police Reports After a Car Accident

Oklahoma accident reports contain valuable information about the conditions related to a motor vehicle accident, including the date, time, and location of the collision, identification of the parties involved, and other key details that can help determine fault for an accident. Because a neutral law enforcement officer prepares the report, it may have great weight in a personal injury claim. Your insurance company will likely request that you provide a copy of the accident report.

Here are the ways that you can go about securing this important document involved in your case:

Request the Report Online

Start by downloading a Collision Request for Records Form (303RM-C) online. What you do with this form will depend on the particular law enforcement agency and its internal processes. You can submit an online request through the Service Oklahoma website for Oklahoma Highway Patrol reports. Some cities allow you to request a report via the Carfax Police Crash Assistance Program.

Email the Request

Some law enforcement agencies may allow you to email a completed accident report request form to them.

Mail in Your Request

You can complete the Collision Request for Records form and mail it to the following address:

Service Oklahoma Business Support Services Division

P.O. Nox 11415

Oklahoma City, OK 73136-0415

Visit in Person

You may need to visit a Service Oklahoma location or the local police department where the accident occurred.

You may need to pay a small fee for a copy of the report. Before requesting the document, be sure you have as much information about the accident as possible, including the date of the accident, the case number, the location, and the names of the drivers involved.

Reports can take up to 30 days for processing. Some local police departments have a specific records division that handles these requests and may be able to provide copies faster.

The process for obtaining the report may depend on the specific law enforcement agency involved. For example, Oklahoma City Police Department requires you to upload a signed affidavit with your request form that proves you are eligible to receive the report.

Reports generally will not be available for at least one week following an accident.
