Tennessee Permit Practice Test

In the event of a reportable accident, the operator of the vehicle must file an accident report within 20 days to the Department of Safety.This means that the other options are incorrect because they do not align with the specified time period of 20 days. Option A of 10 days is incorrect as it is too short of a time period for filing an accident report. Option C of 48 hours is also incorrect as it is not enough time to gather all necessary information and submit a thorough report. Option D of 72 hours is also incorrect as it is shorter than the correct answer of 20 days.
