Stricter crash duties for drivers
Beginning November 1, 2026, Oklahoma expands drivers’ duties after crashes that damage property or a vehicle someone is driving or attending. Drivers must stop immediately at or near the scene, or return immediately, and stay until meeting Section 10-104 requirements. They must avoid blocking traffic more than necessary. For crashes damaging only roadside fixtures, fences, or other property legally on or beside the road, drivers must reasonably try to find and notify the owner or person in charge. They must give their name, address, and vehicle registration number, show their license and insurance verification form on request, and report the crash as Section 10-108 requires. Violations of either set of duties are misdemeanors carrying a fine up to $500, county jail up to one year, or both. Drivers who violate the stop-and-stay rule also face civil damages equal to three times the damage caused by the crash. Judges can also order drivers to repay damage costs under either section.
