Good to know
Four things people often assume about their crash report, and what’s actually true.
The report is one piece of evidence. Not the verdict.
Your photos, medical records and witnesses count too. Keep them.
You might think

Actually
It records what the officer saw and was told. Insurers and courts also weigh photos, video, damage, medical records and witnesses.
You might think

Actually
It lists injuries reported at the scene. Pain that shows up days later won’t be in it, so keep your own medical records.
You might think

Actually
Agencies can fix objective errors or add a supplement. They won’t change an officer’s opinion just because someone disagrees.
You might think
Anyone can pull a copy.
Actually
Louisiana keeps crash reports confidential to the people involved and a few others. That’s why we ask for your OK.
