Requesting a Collision Report
If you've been in a collision, you may request a copy of the collision report online or by completing the Request for Copy of Collision Report (SCDMV Form FR-50) and taking it to any SCDMV branch office or mailing it to the address on the form. The collision report is more detailed than the report you received the day of the collision.
You will only be able to receive an official copy of a collision report if the official copy is available. The official copy will not be available until it has been received and processed by the SCDMV.
Your Request for Copy Collision Report (SCDMV Form FR-50) does not need to be submitted to the Communications Office. You can simply complete the form and mail it to the address on the form.
Online
To request a collision report online, you must enter your personal information first. This authenticates who is requesting a copy of the collision report. Once you enter your personal information, you must then enter information that identifies the collision.
Limitations for Requesting a Collision Report Online
