The complete path

From memory to an official record

Write down the details you remember

Start with the crash date, approximate time, city, street or intersection, county, highway, and direction of travel.

Search with the most specific location

Use a street, intersection, city, highway, or county. If the first search is too narrow, remove one detail and try again.

Compare the result with your own records

Check the date, location, vehicles, severity, and responding agency before treating a result as your crash.

Request the official police report

A CrashStory record is not the official police report. Use the responding agency and incident details to request the official record.
