Who can get the report
Anyone with a Kansas.gov account can buy a Kansas Highway Patrol crash report. Before you buy, you certify under K.S.A. 45-230 that you will not use the names or addresses in the report to sell property or services.
Where to request it
The Kansas Highway Patrol sells its crash reports through the Kansas.gov Accident Reports service, for crashes since May 2013. Older reports are requested by mail from Kansas Highway Patrol Records.
For a crash on city streets, ask the city police department, such as the Wichita Police Department.
What you need
Any of these:
- The name of a person involved
- The case number
- The date of the crash
Fees and timing
Each report costs $5, plus $2 for each witness statement. Kansas.gov does not state how long reports take to appear.
If the report is not filed yet
If you cannot find your report, ask the agency that responded to the crash whether it has been filed. Kansas.gov only has reports taken by the Kansas Highway Patrol.
