Legal Question in Personal Injury in North Carolina

You might want to consult with an attorney in your area and provide him or her with more facts, to obtain further guidance and information. It appears that you know that you hit something, although (a) it is not clear that you struck a car and (b) it is not clear that you caused this amount of damage. I am inferring that you have insurance (which is required by law). It is normally best to turn this over to your insurance company. They will investigate the matter; and of course you want to make them aware of the specific concerns you have here (i.e. regarding whether this damage occurred at all). They might pay the claim, or they might deny it; or they might pay part of it (but not e.g. the CD player). Depending on several factors (including the extent of damage), this might or might not affect your insurance rates. As a partial side note: you really don't want to prompt this person to try to have you charged with hit-and-run, and so for that reason (among others) you might want to be pro-active and address this issue head on.
