If you were just in a fender-bender in Mississauga, here's where to report it, what Peel Regional Police's 11 Division requires, and — just as important — what happens after you've filed. Ontario's accident benefits system applies no matter who caused the crash, and it's worth finding out what you're owed before you assume there's nothing more to do.
Mississauga sits within the Peel Regional Police coverage area, and two collision reporting centres serve the city directly:
Hours and requirements can change — confirm current details with Peel Regional Police before you go.
Before you head to 11 Division or Peel HQ, gather your driver's licence, vehicle ownership (permit), and insurance slip (pink card) — you'll need the vehicle itself there too. Photograph all sides of your car and the damage beforehand, and get the other driver's name, licence number, plate, and insurance details, plus any witness contact information. Staff will help you complete the report, photograph the damage, apply a "Damage Reported to Police" sticker, and hand you an incident number for your insurer — the whole visit usually takes about 15–20 minutes, and the driver has to attend in person.
Filing the report is just the paperwork. If you were hurt — even if it felt minor at the scene — Ontario's no-fault insurance system means your own insurer may owe you accident benefits regardless of who caused the crash: physiotherapy and medical treatment, income replacement if you missed work, and attendant care if you need help at home. Whiplash and other soft-tissue injuries are common after even minor-looking collisions and often don't show up for a few days — a delayed onset doesn't disqualify your claim.

If anyone is injured, there's a fatality, a suspected criminal offence, or damage to public property, call 911 instead of driving to a reporting centre. For a property-damage-only crash with no injuries, Ontario requires reporting once the damage looks like it could exceed a set dollar threshold, and because police typically don't attend a damage-only crash, you report it yourself at a collision reporting centre, generally within 48 hours if your vehicle is drivable (if it needs a tow, you're taken there directly from the scene). Either way, notify your own insurer separately — that's not the same step as reporting to police.
Mississauga is served by two Peel Regional Police collision reporting centres: 11 Division at 3030 Erin Mills Pkwy, and Peel Regional Police HQ at 7150 Mississauga Rd. Hours and exact requirements can change, so confirm current details with Peel Regional Police before you go.
Bring your driver's licence, vehicle ownership (permit), insurance slip (pink card), the vehicle itself, and photos of the damage. It also helps to have the other driver's name, licence number, plate, and insurance details, plus contact information for any witnesses.
Ontario's no-fault insurance system means your own insurer may owe you accident benefits regardless of who caused the crash — this can include medical and physiotherapy treatment, income replacement if you missed work, and attendant care if you need help at home. The specific benefits and limits that apply depend on your policy and your injuries, so it's worth getting a free case review rather than assuming you're not covered.
