Miami Beach Personal Injury Referrals

Miami Beach is an incorporated municipality in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The official county municipalities page lists Miami Beach among Miami-Dade County's 34 incorporated municipalities and gives its incorporation date as March 26, 1915. The City of Miami Beach operates the Miami Beach Police Department. This page separates local reporting and records information from a request for a possible attorney introduction. WeGotInjured.com is an attorney referral service, not a law firm; we do not provide legal advice or determine fault, case value, or representation.

Reporting and safety information for Miami Beach

MBPD's online system is limited to selected non-emergency reports, including traffic complaints. The incident must not be an emergency or in progress, must have occurred within Miami Beach, and the filer must be at least 18. The city directs emergencies to 911. FLHSMV says crashes involving injury, fatality, hit-and-run, DUI, a wrecker, a commercial motor vehicle, or apparent damage of at least $2,000 require staying at the scene and calling 911; some minor crashes may be self-reported.

Records and agency routing in Miami Beach

MBPD says police reports may be requested online, by email, phone, mail, or in person through its Records Unit at 1100 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach, FL 33139; it lists a traffic crash report fee of $0.20 per page. FLHSMV is Florida's official crash-record repository, says reports may take up to 10 days to become available, and provides Crash Portal purchasing subject to statutory access limits. The Miami-Dade Clerk handles traffic citations and court records, which are distinct from the underlying police crash report. [2]

A useful local distinction in Miami Beach

The City of Miami Beach maintains official pedestrian and bicycle safety/transportation information advising people to follow local laws, stay alert, share the road, and recognize pedestrian right-of-way. The page did not render substantive text in retrieval, so it should be used only as a narrow context pointer and not for statistics. [3]
