REPORT A CRASH ONLINE 
If you are involved in a crash, it can be very stressful, but South Australia Police has introduced a new system to help make it easier to report a crash. You can now report certain crashes online instead of reporting the crash at a police station.
While drivers are still required by law to report crashes involving death or injury to police within 90 minutes, other crashes may now be reported online, particularly those where no one has been injured and that involve less than $3000 damage. To be able to report a crash online the following criteria must apply:
- the crash occurred in South Australia
- no one was injured or killed, and the incident was not a hit and run
- all drivers or owners of damaged property have provided their details
- no government vehicles were involved
- no vehicles were towed or carried away
- a fair estimate of the total damage is less than $3000
- police did not attend and the driver does not require the crash to be investigated by police.
