Do I need to call the police if I have a car accident in Florida?

You should always call the police if you had a car accident. The reason being you want to have proper documentation of what happened. Exchanging information with the other driver and going on your way often is a problem because later on, that person can change their story and say that you were at fault and make claims against you that may or may not be true. It’s important to have an officer come there, do a report, and make sure that it’s properly documented. It’s also helpful for the insurance companies to have the police report when they go ahead and evaluate their claims.
