What if a police report for an auto accident does not tell the truth?

You may refute the untruths in that report by presenting your truths. Remember to back them up with supporting evidence....like if the report says you ran a red light and hit a car but you know the light was green then you may state this and support it with eyewitness testimony, or factual 'hard' evidence like that traffic light has a red light camera and no photo was taken of you running a red light. Cops are just people, and people make mistakes. Look for evidence to support what you feel is "the truth" and remember that law enforcement officers, especially undercover cops, are allowed to lie in many situations without receiving any reprimand.

Do insurance companies in auto accidents go by the police report?
Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Police officers who make out an accident report are rarely a witness to the actual accident and almost never investigate and auto accident unless foul play is suspected. Typically an officer responding to the scene of an accident is simply noting observations and taking down the statements of others. There is no reason to assume that the officer knows all the facts, has interviewed all witnesses or even has the training to determine fault or legal liability. An insurance adjuster does have that training. Although an insurer will certainly want to review any accident reports that have been filed to make sure they have as much information as possible, they do not make a determination based solely on a police officers accident report.
