Who can get the report

Anyone. Crash reports in Idaho are public records under Idaho Code 49-202 and 74-124.

Where to request it

The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) Office of Highway Safety sells crash reports through its online crash report portal, using the state's Idaho.gov payment service.

Some city departments also release reports through their own public records process. In Boise, send a written public records request to the Boise Police Department.

What you need

Search the ITD portal with any combination of:

  • A first and last name
  • The city or county
  • The last 4 digits of a driver's license number
  • The case ID
  • A date range

Fees and timing

Each report costs $7 plus a transaction fee. New reports take a few weeks to appear, and longer for some agencies. After you buy a report, you have 7 days to save it.

If the report is not filed yet

If you cannot find your report after a few weeks, contact the ITD Office of Highway Safety at ohsweb@itd.idaho.gov or 208-334-8000. They can tell you whether the agency has sent it in.
