The police must take an official accident report if any person involved in the accident is injured in the accident, by N.Y. State law. Our agency does generally take a full report even if there are no injuries, in most circumstances. The driver of any vehicle must also report an accident to DMV of any accident causing a fatality, personal injury, or damage to either vehicle over $1000.00 on a “civilian accident report form” (MV-104) which may be picked up at any police agency or DMV. This report must be completed and mailed to DMV within 10 days of the accident.
