A Texas accident report, or the Texas Peace Officer's Crash Report (CR-3), includes details of the crash such as the date, time, location, involved parties, vehicle descriptions, road conditions, a diagram of the accident scene, and the investigating officer's opinion of the cause. It's required by Texas Transportation Code §550.062 to be submitted by law enforcement for crashes resulting in injury, death, or significant property damage.
In Texas, a car accident stays on your driving record for five years. However, insurance companies may use a shorter period, such as three years, to assess premiums, which can vary based on the severity of the incident and the carrier's policies.
For inaccuracies in an accident report, you can request an update from the police department, supporting your case with evidence. It's recommended to maintain professional communication with the department and consider legal assistance for complex issues.
