This bill mandates that police departments must provide fire departments with specific personal and insurance information of motorists involved in a motor vehicle accident. The new legal language inserted into the current law specifies that the information obtained by law enforcement, which accident participants are required to exchange, can be shared not only with the involved parties (owners, operators, passengers, and pedestrians) but also with the fire department that responded to the accident. This information must be provided upon request by the fire department.

Additionally, the bill amends RSA 260:14, VII-a(c) to include these provisions, ensuring that fire departments have access to crucial information that may assist in their response and follow-up efforts after an accident. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
