York Region rules, explained simply.
Vaughan is policed by York Regional Police, and its collision reporting works differently from Toronto’s. There’s no Toronto-style CRC stop: York has moved most minor collision reports online, and we’ll help you find the right way to report. We take your car from the scene straight to your mechanic, dealer or body shop, with photos and an itemized invoice for your insurance claim.
You choose your tow company and where your car goes. That’s your right under Ontario law.

Reporting a crash in Vaughan.
Ontario requires a police report when someone is injured, when combined damage is over $5,000, or when property is damaged. In Vaughan, that’s York Regional Police, not Toronto Police.
York has moved most minor collision reports online, and its in-person options have changed recently. If you’re not sure how to report your Vaughan collision, call York’s non-emergency line and they’ll tell you.
Crashes on the 400, 407 and 427 are handled by the OPP. Call 911 for any collision with injuries.
