In kentucky , does a non injury motor vehicle accident have to be reported to the police ?

Damage on vehicle less than $500

I don't know for sure in KY but in my experiences and those of my friends in at least a half a dozen states, as long as the cars involved are drivable the cops don't make a report. I have heard of, but do not know anyone who had to file a report because of city or town laws but not state laws.

An injury from a motor vehicle crash happens in the United States every ____seconds.? An injury from a motor vehicle crash happens in the United States every ____seconds.?

Well, I don't know about just injury accidents but a traffic crash happens ever five (5) seconds.

In 2005, 2,699,000 people were injured in a traffic crash. Divide 2,699,000 by 31,536,000 seconds per year gives you 0.08 or about one person every second.

My brother rear ended a vehicle, he was at fault. No dispute there. The accident report states he was doing 20 mph when he struck the front vehicle in the rear. My brother's car was smashed in pretty good in the front as he was driving a small Kia. The other party was in a medium sized SUV, or Toyota forerunner. The Toyota's bumper was smashed in fairly good, but not too much. The Toyota had 3 occupants all of which are now claiming semi-serious injuries. Most of which are the "gray" are types like head and neck, etc. I'm not saying they are totaling lying, but perhaps stretching things a bit. How close do insurance companies look at vehicle damage before assessing injury liability. Will the fact only their bumper was broke and a 20 mph impact with much larger vehicle be in our favor? Or is it really possible to suffer such sever injury from a crash like this?

My brother was rear-ended a few years ago, and he was stopped, and turning his head at the moment. He was off for weeks with stretched ligaments, muscles, and tendons. A sudden impact can do all kinds of damage that isn't visible.
