The Gwinnett County Police Department is pleased to announce that it is now offering an online service designed to make it easier for motorists to obtain copies of vehicle collision reports. The Gwinnett County Police Department has recently entered into an agreement with Open Portal Solutions. Earlier this year, Open Portal Solutions entered into a contract with the Georgia DOT and began managing the state's central accident report repository. A portion of this agreement now allows those involved in a collision in Gwinnett County to obtain their accident reports online. In agreement with Open Portal Solutions and the State of Georgia Department of Transportation, the Gwinnett County Police Department has now made it easier and more convenient to retrieve copies of accident reports. Utilizing http://www.buycrash.com/ involved parties can now obtain copies of an accident report online and at their convenience. An Involved Party is persons directly involved in the collision or their authorized legal/insurance representative. Obtaining a report is easy. Visiting www.buycrash.com an involved party will be asked for a few simple pieces of information and then be directed to the correct report. At the scene of a collision, the investigating officer should complete a BuyCrash card, noting the collision date, the Police Department's agency number, a case number, and the other motorist's last name. Motorists will then be advised that they can obtain a copy of the pertinent accident report either online or at the Gwinnett Police Headquarters in Lawrenceville. Accessing BuyCrash.com eliminates the need for individuals to make trips to a Gwinnett Police Department. Involved parties can now locate, view and purchase copies of vehicle collision reports 24 hours a day, 7 days a week without the hassle of traveling to Police Headquarters. The cost of an online report is $6. BuyCrash.com is being offered to the public as a convenience. The $6 charge is generated solely by Open Portal Solutions. Neither the Police Department nor Gwinnett County Government receives any revenue from the public's use of this service. The Gwinnett County Police Department views BuyCrash as an opportunity to extend a convenience to our residents and guests and has opted to offer the service at cost to the public. Open Portal Solutions and BuyCrash.com already have a history of success with statewide collision reporting systems in Kentucky, Indiana, Washington and Tennessee.
