Collision Reporting Centre
Report Motor Vehicle Collisions Online
Community members can now report Motor Vehicle Collisions (MVCs) online. Submit the collision details, including information about the other driver, any witnesses, and your personal statement.
After you submit your report, you will receive:
- a unique reference number, and
- instructions for visiting the Collision Reporting Centre (CRC), including its location, hours, and required documents such as identification and your vehicle.
At the CRC, staff will verify your documents, photograph your vehicle, and finalize the report.
This online option makes the process faster and more convenient, allowing you to start from home and reduce your time at the CRC.
Attending the Collision Reporting Centre
We work in collaboration with Accident Support Services to provide efficient and effective collision reporting through the Collision Reporting Centre (CRC).
CRC Phone Number: 705-983-0994
Accident Support Services can also be reached at this number.
Before attending the CRC, please ensure you have:
- Your valid Driver’s Licence

If your vehicle was towed from the collision scene, confirm with the tow company that it has been taken to — and will be available for — CRC photographs.
Motor vehicle collisions that occur within the City of Greater Sudbury are generally directed to the Collision Reporting Centre.
