Let me clarify a few things using what knowledge I have of accident protocol.
For those of you saying it wasn't a hit and run:Not true, legally if a persons car even touches another car leaving the scene is considered hit and run unless both drivers agree it is not worth informing police about.
For those saying the car owner probably won't care:If somebody even scratched the paint of my car and decided to run I would be pretty loving pissed. I'm sorry some of you do not know the worth of vehicles or don't give a stuff about your cars, but I like having no scratches on my car. A mere chip in the paint could still be expensive to fix. For a professional to touch a scratch up the charges are usually no less than $200.
For those saying Stocking can't be tracked:If the man who saw recorded the license plate and handed it to police they simply have to type it in their computers and they instantly have all Stocking's information.
The potential charges:The average charge for a hit and run accident is suspension of the drivers license (Some jurisdictions may even suspend it for life) and depending on the judge possibly jail time.
The average charge for driving with no insurance is license suspension for a year, requirement to pay all costs of the accident out of pocket, and a fine ranging from $150-$500.
could be worse
you could've been like Destroyer and instead of driving away, you would have driven right into the car again. and again.
I swear you must be my biggest fan, any topics about cars and my name is always in your posts. When have I ever done what you said? No wonder nobody likes you.
