Re: hit and run car accident
It depends on whether any person was injured. If it's just property damage then you can be charged with a misdemeanor where you are facing up to 1 year in jail. If a person was seriously injured then up to 5 years in prison since it becomes a felony. Call me if you have any questions at any time. Good luck.
