When do you need to report a collision to the police?

  1. Only in high traffic areas

  2. When there is injury or property damage over $2000

  3. Whenever there is a vehicle involved

  4. Instantly, regardless of damage

The correct answer is: When there is injury or property damage over $2000

Reporting a collision to the police is essential for legal and insurance purposes, especially in situations where there are injuries or significant property damage. The requirement to report a collision occurs specifically when the property damage exceeds a certain monetary amount, which is set at $2000 in many jurisdictions, including Alberta. This threshold helps ensure that police resources are allocated effectively, focusing on serious incidents that could involve legal implications, insurance claims, and public safety concerns. In situations involving injury, police intervention is also crucial as they can document the scene, collect witness statements, and provide an official report. This documentation can be essential for insurance claims and potential legal matters following accidents. By adhering to this reporting guideline, drivers contribute to safer roadways and ensure that appropriate measures are taken in the aftermath of a collision.
