I bumped into the car next to me in the parking lot, and I left the scene. What are the consequences?
If you fail to report an accident in a parking lot, you can be charged with hit-and-run. No matter how small the damage is, if your car causes damage to another car or an object, you are obligated to find the owner of the vehicle or property and exchange insurance information with them.
If you are unable to locate the owner, you are required to leave your contact information on the other vehicle so that the owner can contact you about the damages.
If you fail to do this, you can be arrested and charged with a criminal misdemeanor.
If your vehicle causes damage to another vehicle or someone else's property, make every effort to find the owner of the vehicle or property. If you are unable to locate the owner, you are obligated to leave your contact information for the owner.
If you have questions about the above, or if you have been charged with hit and run, contact the traffic ticket defense attorney Scott Miller in Alpharetta, Georgia, for a free consultation. 770-408-1001

- Attorney Scott recently represented me and my mother both for traffic ticket charges. In both cases he got my mothers charge and my charge dismissed. He is a wonderful attorney and also a wonderful person. I can’t recommend him enough! Regina: Marietta, GA.
- I was moving along with the speed of traffic when I was pulled over. I was frightened, this was my first ticket ever. The police officer gave me a super speeder ticket. Attorney Miller got my speed reduced and my ticket dismissed. Hooray Attorney Miller, I will refer all my friends and family to you! Roeween: Buford GA.
- I was arrested for street racing in Alpharetta. Scott had helped me previously with a speeding ticket I called Attorney Miller when I was released from jail. Scott worked with the court and got my charge reduced. I had to pay a fine and go to traffic school. Simon
