The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) maintains a database of official crash reports filed by law enforcement. Injured victims can request a copy of the report online through the Crash Report Online Purchase System portal. Following the accident, it may take a few days for the crash report to be uploaded and available online. Texas peace officers must submit a report for any accidents resulting in injury, fatality, or more than $1,000 in property damage within ten days of the accident. TxDot also allows accident victims to submit a request for a crash report by mail.
