How to Get Your Massachusetts Car Accident Report

When a car crash occurs in Massachusetts, the investigating police officer from the Massachusetts State Police or local police fills out an official accident report, formally called the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Motor Vehicle Crash Police Report. This report becomes a key piece of evidence in the process to get compensation for your car accident.

Insurance companies use the report to determine fault. If your case results in litigation and the investigating officer is called upon to testify, the report will likely be the basis of their testimony. That’s why you need a copy of the accident report.
