The state name opens that state's rule, deadline and filing address in the rules table. States not listed here have not been read at their source yet; the builder still makes a Crash Record for them.
How the builder works
Ten short steps. The paper beside the questions shows every answer as you give it.
- Pick the state and the day. The state sets the rule. The day starts the deadline, and the due date is stamped on the paper.
- Answer four questions about the crash. Was anyone hurt, did police write a report, how much damage, did the other driver leave. The builder then says what your state asks of you.
- Fill in the people and the vehicles. You, your vehicle and your insurance, then the other driver. Blank boxes are allowed.
- Say what happened and draw it. A few plain sentences and a diagram with two cars.
- Download, sign, send. The PDF is made on your device. You print it, sign it and send it to the office your state names.
What this is, and what it is not
This is a writing tool. It turns your answers into a clean report: the Florida driver form where that applies, a Crash Record everywhere else. You check every answer, you sign, and you send it.
It is not a government service and not a police department. The report is not a police report and does not replace one. We do not file anything for you, and we cannot tell you who was at fault. If anyone was hurt, call the police first.
Florida's form is the state's own file, HSMV 90011S (rev 11/2019), unchanged. You can also get it straight from the state: the form on flhsmv.gov.
Questions about the builder
Is this car accident report form really free?
Yes. The builder is free, with no account, no email and no card. You answer the questions, download the PDF and keep it. The official state forms belong to the states.
Which state forms does the builder fill in?
Florida today. Your answers are typed into the state's own driver form, HSMV 90011S (rev 11/2019), and one extra sheet carries your description and diagram. For every other state the builder makes a Crash Record, and the table on this page links to the official form where we have read it.
What is a Crash Record?
A one page report of the crash in your own words: who, what, when, where, what happened and a diagram, with a line for your signature. It is our own document. It is not a police report and not a state form. People use it for their insurer and their own files.
Why is there no state form for Texas or Ohio?
Texas takes no driver report: the Texas Department of Transportation stopped keeping the driver's form on September 1, 2017. Ohio's form BMV 3303 is an optional report about an uninsured driver, not a crash report (R.C. 4509.06). In both states the builder makes a Crash Record.
Can I stop and come back later?
Yes. Your answers are saved in this browser as you type. Safari can remove them after seven days away, and a private window forgets them when it closes, so use Save file if you need longer. Load file brings them back on any device.
Is anything I type sent to you?
No. Nothing you type leaves your device. The PDF is made inside your browser. The only files your browser fetches at the end are the PDF tool and the blank form, both from this site.
Do I sign the report on screen?
No. Print the PDF and sign it by hand, then send it yourself. Florida's page says the driver must sign the report; it does not say a typed signature counts.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Two buttons at the bottom switch between the questions and the paper. You can draw the diagram by dragging the cars, or by tapping a car and using the move and turn buttons.
