If another vehicle scratches your car and flees the scene, you should promptly report it to the public security authorities, who will investigate and handle the matter. The hit-and-run driver will bear full responsibility. A hit-and-run in traffic refers to the act of a party involved in a road traffic accident driving away or abandoning their vehicle at the scene to evade legal consequences. For minor scratch accidents, the nature of the incident must be determined through investigation by the traffic police department. More details are as follows: 1. Fleeing after causing a traffic accident refers to the act of the perpetrator running away after the accident to evade legal responsibility. 2. Fleeing after causing a traffic accident that does not constitute a crime may result in a fine of 200-2000 yuan, 12 penalty points, and detention for up to 15 days. 3. Fleeing after causing a traffic accident that constitutes a crime will lead to criminal liability and permanent revocation of the driver's license. 4. The standard for a traffic accident to constitute a crime: being mainly or fully responsible for the accident, causing serious injury to one or more persons or being unable to compensate for damages exceeding 300,000 yuan; or causing the death of three or more persons with equal responsibility. Minor scratches should not meet the above conditions.
