Resources for families

Obtaining the collision report as next of kin

California limits collision reports to parties of interest. After a death, that includes the next of kin and the representative of the estate. The investigating CHP office can confirm what proof of relationship it requires.

The coroner / medical examiner process

The county coroner or medical examiner conducts a separate examination and issues its own report. These records are typically available to next of kin, and generally take several weeks — longer than the collision report.

Financial assistance

The California Victim Compensation Board (CalVCB) can help eligible families with funeral and burial expenses. Visit the official CalVCB site
