Actually, _all_ traffic crash reports (alas, the city follows suit to the state 
and still 
calls them "accident" reports), except those redacted, eventually make it to 
the city's 
web site. See http://www.cityofmadison.com/police/accidents . But you need to 
know a name 
of a party to the crash, or an insurance company, or a case number. This was 
done to 
prevent "ambulance chasers" from simply searching by date, and spamming 
everyone involved 
in a crash on a particular day. In addition, it can take up to a week or so for 
the 
reports to end up on this site.
