(1) When the collision results in injury or death to any person;
(2) When the collision occurs on a public highway and results in property damage to an apparent extent of $2,000 or more; or
(3) When it appears that any collision involving a driver whose physical ability is impaired as a result of the use of alcohol or drugs or any combination thereof.
