Yeah, in my 2 car-on-car incidents in California, the cops didn't want to know. They wouldn't even give a case number. "Is everyone standing on their own 2 feet? Are both vehicles driveable? Is nobody blocking the freeway? Our work is done, take the rest of it up with your respective insurance companies."
