Police records stay with the agency that made them, such as a city or town police department, a sheriff's office or the state police. What each agency releases, and how fast it answers, differs from place to place.

Georgia's Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. 50-18-72(a)(5), sets who may get a crash report; for crashes worked by the State Patrol, ask a State Patrol post or the DPS Open Records Unit. Most sheriff's offices and police departments can print your Georgia criminal history, according to the GBI.
