Motor Vehicle Accident Reporting Procedures
  1. Determine whether immediate medical attention is needed for anyone involved in the accident. Obtain necessary medical assistance.
  2. Use the STD 269 (Accident Information Card) in the glove compartment of the State vehicle and share your vehicle and drivers license information with the other driver. Do not admit any fault or make promises.
  3. If any police authority or California Highway Patrol (CHP) is present, obtain a police report number if one is completed.
  4. Report any accident to the Office of Risk and Insurance Management (ORIM) that involves any State-owned vehicle or any vehicle used for State business within 48 hours. Complete and submit the form STD 270 (Vehicle Accident Report) to your Supervisor and the campus Office of Risk Management. If a police report was completed, provide the report number with the STD 270. Your supervisor must complete and submit form STD 274 (State Driver Accident Review).
  5. Immediately report any bodily injury or significant property damage to the State Office of Risk Management and Insurance (ORIM) by telephone at (916) 376-5302 or by FAX (916) 376-5277. Weekend voicemail messages may be left at their toll free phone number (800) 900-3634. All calls will be returned next business day.
Please note that an accident does not require reporting to the State Office of Risk Management and Insurance (ORIM) when damage is less than $500 and no other party is involved.
