Do I need a police report to file an injury claim?
Plenty of crashes get handled with a handshake — until injuries surface.

A report helps a lot but isn't strictly required. Without one, photos, exchanged driver information, witnesses, and dashcam footage carry the weight. If the crash just happened, a late report can still be filed. See a doctor promptly so medical records anchor the injury timeline.
