Do I have to report a car accident that happens in a parking lot?
Reporting all car accidents, no matter if they happened in a parking lot or on the road is generally recommended.
Remember that reporting an accident to the police, even a minor one, has many benefits, like providing you with an
objective account of the incident. In some cases, it might even be legally required, such as if the parking lot
accident resulted in bodily injury or over $2,000 worth of damages.
