Car accident no police report

Without a police report, there is little recourse in assigning damage responsibility to one party or the other, unless one has admitted fault, and hopefully that is properly notarized and in a written and signed statement. Word of mouth has no legal binding.

Whenever there is a car accident, no matter how minor one thinks or doesn't think the damage is, always ... ALWAYS ... call the police and have a report filed. In today's cars, a little "bump" can turn into major frame structural damage later on ... get that police report ... it may be an inconvenience at the time, but you will thank yourself for doing that later on if problems develop.
