Reporting non dot accident in personal vehicle

Never volunteer information. Tell him to keep his mouth shut there's nothing to report.

 

GENERALLY when you hit something in your personal vehicle or get hit etc. If there is no police action, no wrecker or ambulance/coroner call.. there isn't anything to report. Ive had a few dings along the way that the Trucking Company knows nothing about because it did not show up on my State Driving Record. Which is what the employer will pull to check on me once a year signing that annual paper.

Now if you hit stuff with a big truck, you absolutely have to let the company know, preferably before the screaming wounded are loaded into the ambulance. The last vehicle I hit, my employer sent a agent with powers of all sorts including firing me if the inspection of me turns out to be really bad at the scene.

I have done damage with my personal vehicle to other things and generally took care of it cash. When you hand over enough cash, there is nothing to report. It's taken care of quietly. I remember one time I punched out a lady's tail light assembly shoving that heap off the roadway and it took a certain amount of cash plus a new replacement assembly to cover her damage without the Law getting involved. And it was taken care of.

 

Lol no.

 

As long as insurance companies aren't involved
If I have access to this you know insurance companies have more access to this

LexisNexis Personal Reports

 

That's generally why I kept a cash and like new parts replacement as far as damage goes. Bypass the insurance.

It's not that way these days, anything happens they already have been involved at least once when one of our vehicles got totaled not too long ago. In our favor.

 

If you were not cited and it does not get sent to the DMV to go on your record, it didn't happen.
