 1  any person or damage to any vehicle or other property in an

 2  apparent amount of at least $500 shall, within 10 days after

 3  the crash, forward a written report of such crash to the

 4  department or traffic records center. However, when the

 5  investigating officer has made a written report of the crash

 6  pursuant to subsection paragraph (3)(a), no written report

 7  need be forwarded to the department or traffic records center

 8  by the driver.

 9         (2)  The receiving entity may require any driver of a

10  vehicle involved in a crash of which a written report must be

11  made as provided in this section to file supplemental written

12  reports whenever the original report is insufficient in the

13  opinion of the department and may require witnesses of crashes

14  to render reports to the department.

15         (3)(a)  Every law enforcement officer who in the

16  regular course of duty investigates a motor vehicle crash:

17         1.  Which crash resulted in death or personal injury

18  shall, within 10 days after completing the investigation,

19  forward a written report of the crash to the department or

20  traffic records center.

28  forward a written report of the crash to the department or

29  traffic records center if such action is appropriate, in the

30  officer's discretion.

 1         (b)  However, In every case in which a crash report is

 2  required by this section and a written report to a law

 3  enforcement officer is not prepared, the law enforcement

 4  officer shall provide each party involved in the crash a

 5  short-form report, prescribed by the state, to be completed by

 6  the party. The short-form report must include, but is not

 7  limited to:

 8         1.  The date, time, and location of the crash;

 9         2.  A description of the vehicles involved;

10         3.  The names and addresses of the parties involved;

11         4.  The names and addresses of witnesses;

12         5.  The name, badge number, and law enforcement agency

13  of the officer investigating the crash; and

14         6.  The names of the insurance companies for the

15  respective parties involved in the crash.

16         (c)  Each party to the crash shall provide the law

17  enforcement officer with proof of insurance to be included in

18  the crash report. If a law enforcement officer submits a

19  report on the accident, proof of insurance must be provided to

20  the officer by each party involved in the crash. Any party who

21  fails to provide the required information is guilty of an

22  infraction for a nonmoving violation, punishable as provided

23  in chapter 318 unless the officer determines that due to

24  injuries or other special circumstances such insurance

25  information cannot be provided immediately. If the person

26  provides the law enforcement agency, within 24 hours after the

27  crash, proof of insurance that was valid at the time of the

28  crash, the law enforcement agency may void the citation.

29         (4)(a)(b)  One or more counties may enter into an

30  agreement with the appropriate state agency to be certified by

31  the agency to have a traffic records center for the purpose of

                                  4

 1  tabulating and analyzing countywide traffic crash reports. The

 2  agreement must include: certification by the agency that the

 3  center has adequate auditing and monitoring mechanisms in

 4  place to ensure the quality and accuracy of the data; the time

 5  period in which the traffic records center must report crash

 6  data to the agency; and the medium in which the traffic

 7  records must be submitted to the agency.

 9  has a certified central traffic records center, a law

10  enforcement agency or driver must submit to the center within

11  the time limit prescribed in this section a written report of

12  the crash. A driver who is required to file a crash report

13  must be notified of the proper place to submit the completed

14  report.

15         (c)  Fees for copies of public records provided by a

16  certified traffic records center shall be charged and

17  collected as follows:

18         For a crash report.........................$2 per copy.

19         For a homicide report.....................$25 per copy.

20         For a uniform traffic citation..........$0.50 per copy.

21  

22  The fees collected for copies of the public records provided

23  by a certified traffic records center shall be used to fund

24  the center or otherwise as designated by the county or

25  counties participating in the center.

26         (5)(a)(c)  Crash reports and the uniform traffic

27  citations (HSMV75901) associated with such crashes and crash

28  investigations that required by this section which reveal the

29  identity, home or employment telephone number or home or

30  employment address of, or other personal information

31  concerning the parties involved in the crash and that which

28  services program, agent, or employee that is authorized to

29  have access to crash such reports and citations by any

30  provision of law shall be granted such access in the

31  furtherance of the agency's statutory duties notwithstanding

 1  the provisions of this paragraph. Any local, state, or federal

16  solicitation of accident victims, or knowingly disclosed to

17  any third party for the purpose of such solicitation, during

19  and exempt. In lieu of requiring the written sworn statement,

20  an agency may provide crash reports or uniform traffic

21  citations by electronic means to third-party vendors under

 1         (e)  This subsection does not prevent the dissemination

 2  or publication of news to the general public by any legitimate

 3  media entitled to access confidential and exempt information

 4  pursuant to this section. A law enforcement officer as defined

 5  in s. 943.10(1) may enforce this subsection.

 6         (f)  This exemption is subject to the Open Government

 7  Sunset Review Act of 1995 in accordance with s. 119.15, and

 8  shall stand repealed on October 2, 2011 2006, unless reviewed

 9  and saved from repeal through reenactment by the Legislature.

10         (6)(a)(d)  Any driver failing to file the written

12  a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a nonmoving

13  violation as provided in chapter 318.

14         (b)  Any employee of a state or local agency in

15  possession of information made confidential and exempt by this

16  section who knowingly discloses such confidential and exempt

17  information to a person not entitled to access such

18  information under this section is guilty of a felony of the

 1         (7)(4)  Except as specified in this subsection, each

 2  crash report made by a person involved in a crash and any

 3  statement made by such person to a law enforcement officer for

 4  the purpose of completing a crash report required by this

 5  section shall be without prejudice to the individual so

 6  reporting. No such report or statement shall be used as

 7  evidence in any trial, civil or criminal. However, subject to

 8  the applicable rules of evidence, a law enforcement officer at

 9  a criminal trial may testify as to any statement made to the

10  officer by the person involved in the crash if that person's

11  privilege against self-incrimination is not violated. The

12  results of breath, urine, and blood tests administered as

13  provided in s. 316.1932 or s. 316.1933 are not confidential

14  and shall be admissible into evidence in accordance with the

15  provisions of s. 316.1934(2). Crash reports made by persons

16  involved in crashes shall not be used for commercial

17  solicitation purposes; however, the use of a crash report for

18  purposes of publication in a newspaper or other news

19  periodical or a radio or television broadcast shall not be

20  construed as "commercial purpose."

21         (8)  A law enforcement officer, as defined in s.

22  943.10(1), may enforce this section.

23         (5)  For purposes of this section, a written report

24  includes a report generated by a law enforcement agency

25  through the use of a computer.

26         (6)  Any driver failing to file the written report

27  required under subsection (1) or subsection (2) commits a

28  noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a nonmoving

29  violation as provided in chapter 318.

30         Section 3.  The Legislature finds that there is a

31  public necessity that uniform traffic citations and portions

 1  of crash reports which are mandated to be provided by law

 2  immediately to certain parties as specified in s. 316.066,

 3  Florida Statutes, be held confidential and exempt for 60 days

 4  after the date the report or citation is filed to protect the

 5  privacy of persons that have been the subject of a motor

 6  vehicle crash report. Further, the exemption is necessary to

 7  protect the public from unscrupulous individuals who promote

 8  the filing of fraudulent insurance claims by obtaining such

 9  information immediately after a crash and exploiting a crash

10  victim at a time of emotional distress. The Second Interim

11  Report of the Fifteenth Statewide Grand Jury on insurance

12  fraud related to personal injury protection noted a "strong

13  correlation" between illegal solicitation and the commission

14  of a variety of frauds. The grand jury found "the wholesale

15  availability of these reports is a major contributing factor

16  to this illegal activity and likely the single biggest factor

17  contributing to the high level of illegal solicitation."

18  Virtually anyone involved in a car accident in the state is

19  fair game for "runners" who collect crash reports within the

20  60-day public-records-exemption period under false pretenses

21  from law enforcement officials and then provide the

22  information to solicit crash victims and defraud insurers.

23  Continuing to make this information available, in the words of

24  the grand jury, "can be emotionally, physically, and

25  ultimately financially destructive." The 2003 Senate Select

26  Committee on Automobile Insurance/PIP Reform found that

27  despite reforms enacted in 1998 and 2001, fraud continues to

28  permeate the PIP insurance market in Florida. Referrals to the

29  Division of Insurance Fraud for personal injury protection

30  fraud increased over 400 percent from 2002-2003 to 2004-2005.

31  Motor vehicle insurance fraud is fueled by early access to

                                  10

 1  crash reports and uniform traffic citations, which provides

 2  the opportunity for the filing of fraudulent insurance claims.

 3  Crash reports and uniform traffic citations made by law

 4  enforcement officers should not be used for commercial

 5  solicitation purposes. However, the use of a crash report by a

 6  victim services program that is qualified for nonprofit status

 7  under s. 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and has a

 8  valid certificate of exemption which was issued to the program

 9  by the Department of Revenue and acts as an advocate for the

10  victims and survivors of traffic crashes and their families

11  may not be construed as a "commercial purpose." Such programs

12  act as an advocate for the victims and survivors of traffic

13  crashes and their families by providing services such as grief

14  and crisis counseling, assistance with preparing victim

15  compensation claims excluding third-party legal action,

16  connecting persons with other service providers, and providing

17  emergency financial assistance. The Legislature finds that

18  crash reports should be made immediately available to

19  nonprofit victim services programs. The Legislature also finds

20  that uniform traffic citations should be made immediately

21  available to certain parties, such as those persons involved

22  in the motor vehicle crash and their legal representatives,

23  their insurers or insurers to which they have applied for

24  coverage, their licensed insurance agents, persons under

25  contract with such insurers to provide claims or underwriting

26  information, victim services programs, and representatives of

27  law enforcement agencies and other regulatory agencies, and

28  prosecutorial authorities within 60 days after the crash

29  report is filed.

 7  is required to report pursuant to s. 316.066(3)(a) shall

10  investigation of a crash will take more than 10 days to

11  complete, a preliminary copy of the crash report shall be

12  forwarded to the department within 10 days of the occurrence

13  of the crash, to be followed by a final report within 10 days
