It depends on what you define as "minor." I believe every state has a MINIMUM damage amount beyond which you MUST report the collision. Of course, if the accident resulted in personal injury NO MATTER HOW SLIGHT, it MUST be reported regardless of the damage amount. Some states have very low dollar threshhold set, so be certain to check your state's laws on this matter.
