Accident Reports are required to be completed by operators involved in a collision whenever a person sustains injuries as a result of the accident, and/or, if the damage to the vehicles or property involved totals over $1000.

The "Operator's Report of Motor Vehicle Accident," as this form is called, must be submitted to the Police Department whose jurisdiction the accident occurred within, and the MA Registry of Motor Vehicles within five days.
