We are in a no fault state where you usually just exchange insurance info in cases of minor accidents, but from a previous experience of having a rental hit by a work truck we learned that in Florida you need to get a police report. So my wife called 911 to get an officer for report while exchange of information, only to be called back an hour later by the officer who told her they don't respond to "gated communities". He wouldn't tell her what to do. Is this true? It was after 6pm so our insurance agent in Michigan said he'd look things up and get back to us. She did get a letter signed by other driver admitting fault. But who do we call for a report to submit?
Officer probably wrong.
