The Western Australian Police Force advise:
(a)-(b) The response required for this question would take a significant amount of time and resources to collate an “at fault” versus a “not at fault” response. It is therefore not possible for the Western Australia Police Force to obtain this specific information without significantly compromising other core policing activities. However, the cost for repairs to WA Police Force vehicles damaged by impacts is:
(c) The WA Police Force use the Western Australian State Government Motor Vehicle Fleet Services CUA06916 and access a number of approved repairers statewide via the Fleetcare repairer network.
