Answer options

- BWhen property damage is over $2,000 or anyone is hurt Correct
- CWhen property damage is over $1,000 or anyone is hurt
Why
Alaska requires a written crash report to the DMV whenever someone is injured or killed or property damage goes above $2,000. The lower $1,000 figure is not the threshold, and the duty is not limited to injured drivers.
