Get Your Auto Accident Report — Step by Step.

Reports in Florida are filed by the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP), county sheriff’s office, or local police. The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) centralizes most reports through its statewide portal.

You’ll need the crash date, the county where the accident occurred, driver’s license or name of an involved party, and ideally the report number. Florida restricts report access for 60 days following the crash — only parties involved, their representatives, or their insurers may obtain a copy during that window.

• Online: Request through the official Florida Crash Portal for $10 plus a $2 convenience fee.
• In Person: Visit the local FHP troop station or the law enforcement agency that responded.
• By Mail: Submit form HSMV 90510 with payment and a sworn statement to FLHSMV, Crash Records, 2900 Apalachee Pkwy, Tallahassee, FL 32399.

Reports are typically available 10 days after the crash, though severe or fatal accidents may take longer while the investigation is pending.

Arizona reports are filed by Arizona Department of Public Safety (AZ DPS) troopers for highway accidents, or by the county sheriff or local police for accidents within their jurisdiction. The agency that filed the report is the one you’ll request it from.

You’ll need the accident date, names of drivers involved, location (city/county), and the DR number or incident number if you have it. Most agencies require you to be a party to the accident or an authorized representative.

• Online: The AZ DPS Public Records Unit handles state trooper reports. Many city police departments (Phoenix, Tucson, Mesa, etc.) use their own online records portals.
• In Person: Visit the records division of the agency that responded to your accident.
• By Mail: Submit a records request form with payment to the responding agency’s records unit.

Timing varies by agency. AZ DPS typically processes requests within 7–10 business days. Local police departments may be faster or slower depending on workload.

Reports are filed by the Nevada Highway Patrol (NHP) for highway crashes, or by Las Vegas Metro Police, Reno PD, Henderson PD, or another local or county agency depending on where the accident occurred.

You’ll need the accident date, location, names of involved parties, and the event number or case number if available.

• Online: NHP reports are available through CrashDocs.org, the authorized third-party portal. Las Vegas Metro and other local agencies often have their own online records systems.
• In Person: Visit the records window at the responding agency’s headquarters.
• By Mail: Submit a written request with payment to the agency’s records unit.

Most reports are available within 7–14 business days after the accident. Investigations involving injuries or fatalities may take longer.

Utah reports are filed by the Utah Highway Patrol (UHP) for state highway and interstate accidents, or by the county sheriff’s office or local police for accidents within city or county jurisdictions.

You’ll need the accident date, location, names of involved drivers, and the case number if you have it. Utah restricts access to involved parties, their representatives, and insurers.

• In Person: Visit the records division at UHP Headquarters in Salt Lake City or the responding local agency.
• By Mail: Submit a GRAMA (Government Records Access and Management Act) request form with payment.
