Beginning September 1, 2020, visitors to the City of Blue Island website, www.blueisland.org, will have access to an online portal for crash reports from LexisNexis.
LexisNexis® eCrash is a service to law enforcement agencies that offers an online accident/crash report management solution to help agencies automate their crash reporting process.
“For a small department like ours, fulfilling requests for accident/crash reports can be time-consuming and costly,” says Blue Island Police Chief Bernadine Rzab. “Using LexisNexis® eCrash technology, we’re able to simplify and streamline the process, build a more efficient police department, and create a more citizen-friendly process.”
At the scene of a traffic crash, involved parties will receive a LexisNexis information card from the reporting officer, with information on how to obtain a copy of the crash report. Involved parties can either forward the information to their vehicle insurance provider, or obtain the report themselves. Those unable to obtain a report on-line may do so at the Blue Island Police Department.
To access LexisNexis e-Crash Reports, look for the red box on the right-hand side of the blueisland.org homepage.
