The Wisconsin Driver Report of Accident is a crucial document for anyone involved in a vehicle accident in the state. If you find yourself in an accident where damages exceed $1,000 for any one person’s property, injuries occur, or there’s $200 or more in damage to government property, this form must be completed. It’s important to note that if a law enforcement officer has already filled out a Wisconsin Motor Vehicle Accident Report, you should not complete this form. When filling out the report, you will identify yourself as "Unit 1" and provide all necessary details about the other parties involved. Make sure to sign the report, as an individual involved in the accident must do so. Incomplete submissions may be returned, delaying the process. Use the designated sections to narrate the accident and provide a diagram for clarity. If you need extra space, plain paper can be attached. Be sure to keep a copy for your records before mailing it to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. This ensures you have a reference for any future inquiries. The urgency of submitting this report cannot be overstated, as it plays a key role in insurance claims and potential legal matters.
