In all cases where an officer is involved in a motor vehicle accident [during the performance of duty], the officer or his or her patrol supervisor should prepare a Report of Motor Vehicle Accident form (MV-104) as required by Patrol Guide Procedure No. 217-06.

In the event that an officer's private automobile insurance company penalizes, surcharges, cancels or fails to renew the officer's policy because of an accident occurring during the performance of duty, the officer should request by way of UF 49 that his or her commanding officer notify the insurance company that under applicable regulations, no penalty can be imposed on the officer based on the accident.
