Request a collision report
Please note: if you submitted a road traffic incident report on this site, you'll be able to download a copy of your report once you've submitted it. That report is a collision report. You can then send that report to your insurance company or solicitor.
For insurance claims or civil proceedings, you can apply for a copy of traffic collision reports the police hold, or request an interview with the police officer who dealt with the collision.
You won't be sent a report until any investigation into the incident is over. If an officer didn't attend the incident, there won't be a report.
Before you contact us, check with your insurance company and/or solicitor. They may have already asked for a copy on your behalf.
