Filing an Accident Report in Kentucky

If police did not respond to your accident, or if you need to file a supplemental report with the DMV, you can submit your accident report online or by mail.

When Do You Need to File?

In Kentucky, you must file an accident report if:

  • There was injury or death
  • Property damage exceeded the state minimum threshold
  • A vehicle needed to be towed from the scene
  • Police did not respond to the accident

What Information You'll Need

Before starting your report, gather the following:

  • Date, time, and exact location of the accident
  • Your driver's license and vehicle registration
  • Insurance policy information
  • Other driver(s) information and insurance details
  • Photos of damage and the accident scene
  • Witness names and contact information (if any)

File Your Report Online

Kentucky provides an official portal for filing accident reports:

What Happens After You File?

Once submitted, your report becomes part of the official record. Your insurance company may request a copy, and it may be used in any legal proceedings related to the accident.

Important: Filing a report does not determine fault. It simply documents that an accident occurred. Be factual and accurate—do not admit fault or speculate about causes.

Already Have a Police Report?

If a police officer filed a report at the scene, you can request a copy through our Kentucky Police Report page.
