San Diego Police Department

The San Diego Police Department uses LexisNexis eCrash for traffic collision report distribution, confirmed through the city’s own website: sandiego.gov directs the public to ‘Submit an online request through LexisNexis eCrash’ for traffic collision reports. eCrash is a LexisNexis Coplogic product, meaning San Diego PD crash data flows through LexisNexis infrastructure.

eCrash is a report distribution product — it gives members of the public, insurance companies, and attorneys a way to buy copies of crash reports online. It is distinct from the AVCC/PSDEX system, which involves contributing police data to a shared investigative database. Whether San Diego PD also has an AVCC contribution agreement has not been confirmed.

San Diego sits on the US-Mexico border, making it one of the highest-sensitivity jurisdictions in this investigation. The Georgetown Law ‘American Dragnet’ report (2022) documented that ICE accessed California driver records through LexisNexis despite state privacy laws. San Diego PD participates in ARJIS — its own regional data-sharing consortium — which is separate from LexisNexis AVCC. California’s SB54 sanctuary law applies.
