What should a driver do if involved in an incident where there is damage to property only?

  1. It is only necessary to report the incident to the Gardaí within 10 days.
  2. There is no need to report the incident if there is no damage to the vehicle.
  3. Report the incident both to the property owner and the Gardaí within 48 hours.
  4. It is not necessary to report it to the Gardaí provided it has been reported to the property owner.

Correct Answer

It is not necessary to report it to the Gardaí provided it has been reported to the property owner.

Explanation: If the incident causes damage to property only and there is a Garda present; it must be reported to the Garda. If there is no Garda present; the owner or the person in charge of the property must be informed. If neither are present then the relevant information must be provided at a Garda Station as soon as possible.
