After a collision in Beverly Hills

Collision report lookup- 01
Safety first
If anyone is hurt, call 911. If the cars can be moved and it's safe, get out of traffic.
- 02
Report it to the right agency
On Beverly Hills's local streets that's Beverly Hills Police Department; on the I-405 and I-10, the CHP.
- 03
Exchange information and take photos
Names, license, plate, insurer and policy number — then photos of both cars, the scene and the damage.
- 04
File a DMV SR-1 within 10 days if required
California requires it when anyone is injured or property damage exceeds $1,000.
- 05
Choose your shop
Your insurer can't require a particular body shop (Cal. Ins. Code § 758.5). Tell them your car is going to Top Tier.
Coastal, marine air
What Westside roads do to cars.
Marine-layer moisture and salt air that turn unrepaired chips and scratches into corrosion.
Bumper and parking-sensor damage in tight garages and valet lanes.
Low-speed collisions in congested traffic on Wilshire, Lincoln and Sepulveda.
The I-405 through the Sepulveda Pass is among the most congested freeway segments in the country, while the I-10 and CA-90 feed the beach neighborhoods. Pacific Coast Highway and Lincoln and Sepulveda boulevards carry heavy mixed traffic.
Near the coast, the marine layer and salt air turn a small chip into rust. Scratches that reach bare metal should be repaired promptly — corrosion creeps under the surrounding paint long before you can see it.
