Traffic Safety - Motor Vehicle Accident

I have been involved in a motor vehicle crash in Franklin Township. What should I do?

If a police report has been made.

  1. Notify your insurance company and advise them that you have been involved in a motor vehicle crash. Advise them of the location by street and town where the crash occurred.
  2. In 4 to 8 business days contact the Records Bureau, 732-873-5533 x1020 and inquire as to whether or not the report is ready to be picked up.
  3. Be aware that sometimes reports are not ready in the 4 to 8 business days. Sometimes officers may need to make corrections before the report is approved. In crashes that are of a more serious nature reports take a longer time to be completed because there is more investigation to do.

If no police report was made.

  1. Notify your insurance company and advise them that you have been involved in a motor vehicle crash. Advise them of the location by street and town where the crash occurred.
  2. You will need to come into police headquarters and file a walk in or late report.
