How do I look up an accident report in Texas? ›

You may obtain a copy of a Texas Peace Officer's Crash Report (CR-3) by using our Crash Report Online Purchase System link below. Customers using the online system receive their report(s) via email following the purchase. There is a minimal surcharge for using this system.

To obtain a copy of a report, you may request the report in writing by mail, or you may come in person to the Records Division located at 401 East Beauregard. We do not accept requests by email, fax, or by phone.

Using The Online Purchase System for Your Texas Crash Report

TxDOT no longer maintains copies of CR-2 driver's crash reports. Once you locate your police accident report and pay the processing fee, you will receive an email with a link to a webpage to download the report for ten days following your purchase.

Police reports can be purchased for $6. You may come to the Police Department and pick one up between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday or request one by mail and enclose a check or money order.

Generally, the front page of a police report is public. Records that would hinder the investigation or prosecution of a crime if they are released are exempt from disclosure. Information collected and maintained by the judiciary is not covered by the Texas Public Information Act.

You need to report a motor vehicle accident in Texas to the police if there is an injury or fatality, the vehicles cannot be moved, or if there is property damage over $1,000. You have a 10-day window after the accident to report to the police, but getting the process started sooner can be beneficial.
