It’s important to obtain your Maine truck and car accident report as soon as possible after your accident.
Your Maine State Police incident report or Maine crash report documents the details of the accident, often identifying the responsible party and outlining the events and aftermath of the crash.
This report is crucial, serving as strong evidence if you decide to file a claim or lawsuit.
If the police were called to the scene of your accident, then they wrote a report. And there are three ways you can get a copy of that report:
Online
By mail
In-person
If you’re in a hurry to get your police report, online is probably best. According to Maine.gov, they’ll deliver an e-report to you via email, typically within 2 hours.
All you need is an email address and a form of payment like a debit or credit card. The cost of the report is $10.00 and all fees are nonrefundable.
Obtain your car or truck accident police report via Maine Crash Reporting Online Search & Ordering Service. Some reports are not available, such as those for accidents that occurred before 2003. Local precincts may use this online tool, which you can use as well.
You can contact the Maine State Police Division directly at (207) 624-8944 to request your Maine car accident report by mail if email is not available to you. They can also use fax.
If you’d like to obtain a copy of your Maine accident report in-person, contact the precinct or the town in which the accident occurred to speak with an administrator directly about in-person availability.
