Who can get the report

If you were involved in the collision, you may request a copy of the report from the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles (SCDMV).

Where to request it

SCDMV keeps every collision report in the state, whichever agency took it.

  • Online through SCDMV Online: you enter your own details, including your South Carolina customer number, then the details of the collision. If you are licensed in another state, call 803-896-5000. Crashes before March 22, 2012 are not online.
  • By mail or in person with form FR-50, Request for Copy of Collision Report. By mail, pay by check only; in person, pay by cash, card or check.

What you need

  • The date of the collision and the county
  • The drivers' names and driver's license numbers
  • The FR-10 number and the case number
  • Your own driver's license number, and your customer number to order online

Fees and timing

SCDMV charges $10 per report. A report is available once SCDMV has received and processed it; no processing time is stated.

If the report is not filed yet

If SCDMV does not have the report, ask the agency that responded to the crash whether it has sent the report, then try again.
