What is a Gwinnett County Police Report?
The police officer called to the scene of the crash creates an official report about the crash. This accident report contains information from the collision and the amount of damage, including injuries and vehicular damage.
The officer who creates this report will give you the other driver’s insurance information and accident report number. You can use this information to report it to your insurance company and request a copy of your Gwinnett County car accident report.
If you have to leave the scene of the wreck for any reason, make sure to get this information from someone else. If you can’t get this information, call or visit the Gwinnett County Police Department as soon as possible.
