How Do I Report A Car Accident in Nevada?

Hello, I’m Attorney Michael Gobaud from Adam Kutner, Injury Attorneys

We are frequently asked: How do you report a car accident and do you have to report minor accidents?

If you’ve been involved in a car accident, you will need to make a formal report.

If anyone shows any signs of injuries, you should call 911 right away for emergency medical attention. When law enforcement responds to the scene to investigate the accident, they will file the police report.

However, if you’re involved in a minor accident and there are no injuries that need medical attention, Nevada law requires that you still make a formal traffic accident report within ten days of the date of the accident.

To file a report in Las Vegas you can fill out a form online, or stop into the local police station and fill out a report in person. OR you can call your local police department’s non-emergency number so they can take your information down and help you file a report.
