Getting the Official Crash Report
The official report is written by the law-enforcement agency that handled the crash. Our New Jersey guide explains who keeps crash reports in New Jersey, how to request a copy, and where the official request pages are.
Read the New Jersey guideWhy the Official Report Matters
The official accident report documents key facts—who was involved, where and when it happened, the officer's fault determination, and witness statements. Insurance companies rely on it to process claims.
Without this report, proving fault becomes significantly harder. Even if you don't plan to file a lawsuit, having the official record protects you if the other party's insurance disputes your account.
