AB 1072 Wisconsin Assembly · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: the threshold for reporting a motor vehicle accident causing property damage.

AB 1072 raises the property damage threshold requiring drivers to report motor vehicle accidents from $1,000 to $2,000. It directly affects drivers involved in accidents causing property damage, meaning they must now report incidents only if damage totals $2,000 or more (previously $1,000). The bill clarifies that "total damage to property owned by one person" includes joint ownership counted as a single owner. This change reduces the number of minor property damage incidents requiring police reporting.
