Yes, anytime a crash results in damage to personal and private property or bodily injury the local authorities must be called. However, Jurisdictional limits may help you with whom to call. If the accident occurs on the Highway, contact the Highway Patrol. If the accident occurs on the main streets inside the city, contact the local police.

When a crash results in property damages of any amount must the driver notify the Florida Highway Patrol the Sheriffs Department or the City Police Department?

Florida law states that a crash involving more than $500 damage shall be reportedThe answer depends on where the accident took place. If it occurred on a freeway, it's probably FHP jurisdiction. Inside the city limits, call that city's police; outside the city limits, the county sheriff. If you call any one of these and tell them where the incident occurred, they can probably tell you which agency will handle the report.

Can you still contact your full coverage insurance company to repair damages to your car if the accident occurred a year ago?

Sure. It certainly frowned upon, because often if you don't repair the damages to a vehicle, further damages can occur (frame damage, for instance, can mess up a car pretty badly if driven on for a year after the accident). Your carrier will make a note of it to their underwriting department, and depending on the seriousness of the damages or whether or not you mitigated your damages (ie, didn't incur further damages), it could affect your policy. But...at the time of the accident, if you were paying premiums for coverage on your car, your carrier is contractually obliged to take care of those damages. Just don't be surprised if they won't cover additional damages that resulted from not having the vehicle properly repaired right after the accident.
