1 Answers
The penalty for fleeing after hitting a guardrail is a fine imposed by the traffic management department, and may also include detention for up to 15 days. Below are six situations where fleeing is not recognized: Mutual agreement: If both parties involved in the accident have no dispute over the nature and responsibility of the accident, and after leaving their real names, contact information, and other relevant details, they leave the scene to negotiate and resolve the matter on their own, reaching an agreement, and one party later regrets and reports the incident, the other party is not considered to have fled the scene. Rescuing the injured: If the party involved in the accident drives the vehicle to seek help or report the incident after marking the vehicle's position in order to promptly rescue the injured, this is not considered fleeing the scene. Temporarily leaving the hospital: If the party involved in the accident sends the injured to the hospital and then temporarily leaves the hospital to raise medical expenses or for other special reasons, leaving their real name, contact information, and other details, and obtains the consent of the injured's family before leaving, this is not considered fleeing the scene.
