The Toronto Police Service would like to remind the public of how to report traffic collisions.
Collisions need to be reported if the incident occurs on the road or on private property.
Collisions should be reported at the scene, to a police officer, if there are injuries that require transportation to hospital or criminal actions have occurred.
A collision that has resulted in property damage to vehicles, exceeding $2,000 combined, can be reported to the Collision Reporting Centers which are staffed by Toronto Police officers.
Collision Reporting Centers are open during weekdays from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., and on the weekends 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. The centers are located at :
- in the east end at 39 Howden Road
- in the west end at 113 Toryork Drive
When attending the collision reporting centers, drivers are requested to:
- exchange information with all involved drivers. Take photographs of the drivers licence, ownership and insurance documents if possible.
- take photos of damages to both vehicles, if safe to do so
- if the vehicle is drivable, do not rush over to the Collison Reporting Centre on the day of the collision but when roads have been cleared and it is safe to do so. The involved vehicle and driver can attend at that point
- vehicles that require a tow must attend directly, prior to any other stops
- representatives of insurance companies are available at these centers
