Washington Requests for Electronic Collision Reports
Were you recently in a collision and need a copy of your police traffic collision report for your insurance company? Instead of the four weeks it previously took when mailing in the request, now a few simple clicks of the mouse you can request a copy of your report and receive it in one to five days.
The Requests for Electronic Collision Reports, or RECR, application can be found on the State Patrol’s website.
The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 46.52.030 requires all law enforcement agencies to submit their collision reports to the WSP Collision Records repository in a timely manner. Prior to this Web site, an individual looking for a copy of a collision report would have to mail in the request and a $9.50 fee, even if the WSP Collision Records Section had not yet received the collision report.
This application allows an individual to find their report online first and then pay the fee. If at first you do not find your report, there is no charge.
The WRECR Web site has training and other helpful information to assist requestors with the process. If you still have questions, call WSP’s Collision Records Section at 360-570-2355.
