What if more than one thing applies?
That is common — for example a rideshare trip that ends in a truck collision on snow. Start anyway.
- Every path leads to the same intake and the same review.

Where do I get the Utah accident report?
From the agency that investigated. Utah Highway Patrol reports are requested online through UHP; if a city police department responded, request it from that department.
- Write down the agency name and any case number the officer gave you.
- Crash reports are protected records, available to people involved such as drivers, owners, passengers and their insurers.
A short checklist to keep together
It is fine if you don’t have everything yet.
Gather photos or vehicle markings only when it is safe. Never step into traffic or delay emergency help to document anything.
- Report number and responding agency
- Photos of vehicles, the scene and conditions
- Other party, insurer and policy details
- Witness names and contact details
- Medical visits and bills so far, in date order
- A running log of insurer calls and letters
