Accident Report

Every person operating a motor vehicle which is involved

in an accident in which any person is killed or injured or

in which there is damage in excess of one thousand dollars

to any one vehicle or other property shall, within five

days after such accident, report in writing to the

registrar on a form approved by him and send a copy thereof

to the police department having jurisdiction on the way

where such accident occurred; provided, however, that such

police department shall accept a report filed by an owner

or operator whose vehicle has been damaged in an accident

in which another person has unlawfully left the scene of

such accident. Such report shall not be required during the

period of incapacity of any person who is physically

incapable of making a report. If the operator is not the

owner of the vehicle and is physically incapable of making

such written report, the owner shall within five days after

the accident make such report based on such knowledge as he

may have and such information as he can obtain regarding

the accident. (Chgd. by L.1985, chap. 168, eff. 10/16/85.)

   The registrar may require any such operator or owner to

file a supplementary written report whenever in the opinion

of the registrar the original report is insufficient.

   The registrar may revoke or suspend the license of any

person violating any provision of this section. (Chgd. by

L.1985, chap. 168, eff. 10/16/85.)
