But you're probably right, they would have called me by now surely if they didn't get it back already. And you're also right that it may be a new experience for the customer, but for them they probably see it all the time... I guess most of all I hate the not knowing part

That’s even better.
Having the cops call the tow truck to pick up the car is like the absolute ultimate best thing ever — the rental agency would have to deal with the cops and you’re so out of it, it’s a pretty incredibly frickin’ sweet spot (in my case, the cop deigned to appear only after a full 45 mins and was cross as heck that his Sunday afternoon was spoilt it seemed and then I had to wait bloody hours until the tow truck sent by the rental agency showed up).
As far as rental car accidents, trust me this sounds like white glove treatment.
Seriously though, the rental agency would’ve gotten the cop’s report directly and that would have this info along with insurance stuff and whatnot. You’ll likely just be called to verify any details and that would be it.
