That is usually up to you and the other party involved (if any), and it will highly depend on the extent of the damage. The worse the damage, the more likely you and/or any other party will be legally required to report. Generally, if an accident is multi-party, prudence dictates reporting: in the event one party decides to file claims or legal action later on.
The option to fix the results of an accident yourself is more likely to be available if the accident is single-party (meaning the accident involved hitting a stationary object). Some may wish to employ this option for minor damage because either the cost to repair is too close or even under a deductible or because reporting such an incident can result in increased premiums.
