SR1 filing is triggered by which condition?

SR1 filing is triggered by which condition?

• A. Only if there are injuries
• B. Never
• C. If there is property damage in excess of $1,000 or if there are any injuries
• D. If there is property damage over $5,000

Answer: (C)

SR-1 is the DMV reporting form for crashes, and it’s required whenever a collision involves injuries or when property damage meets or exceeds a certain monetary threshold. In California, that threshold is typically $1,000. So you must file the SR-1 if there are any injuries, or if the property damage is more than $1,000. This helps the DMV keep accurate records and supports insurance and investigation processes. Minor crashes with property damage under $1,000 don’t require this form.
