Sec. 4.4  Report of motor vehicle accident.

    (a) The operator of a motor vehicle involved in an accident 
resulting in property damage, personal injury or death shall report the 
accident to the superintendent as soon as practicable, but within 24 
hours of the accident. If the operator is physically incapable of 
reporting the accident, an occupant of the vehicle shall report the 
accident to the superintendent.

    (b) A person shall not tow or move a vehicle that has been involved 
in an accident without first notifying the superintendent unless the 
position of the vehicle constitutes a hazard or prior notification is 
not practicable, in which case notification shall be made before the 
vehicle is removed from the park area.
    (c) Failure to comply with a reporting requirement specified in 
paragraph (a) or (b) of this section is prohibited.
    (d) The notification requirements imposed by this section do not 
relieve the operator and occupants of a motor vehicle involved in an 
accident of the responsibility to satisfy reporting requirements imposed 
by State law.
