Does it matter if there was no crash report?

Depending on the jurisdiction of the site at which you were injured, law enforcement may not offer an accident report. If you do not tell them that you are experiencing pain or discomfort, they may only help you to exchange information with the other party. That is why it is essential for you to be honest with all involved parties and report any potential injuries immediately.
