What to Do If You Accidentally Scrape Someone Else's Car?
1 Answers
"If a car owner accidentally scrapes someone else's car, they should take photos for evidence if possible, stay at the scene to negotiate with the owner. If it's a minor traffic accident, both parties can quickly resolve it through negotiation; or they can call the police, letting the traffic police contact the owner for handling, and then contact the insurance company for damage assessment to proceed with the corresponding compensation. If no one is present at the accident scene, the car owner can first take photos with their phone for evidence, capturing the scene of the scrape between the two cars, including the license plates, and then move the car to a safe location to avoid causing traffic congestion. After scraping someone else's car, the driver must not flee the scene, as this constitutes hit-and-run. If the hit-and-run does not constitute a crime, the driver may face fines; if it constitutes a crime, they should be held criminally responsible according to the law, and their motor vehicle driving license will be revoked, with the driver permanently banned from obtaining a new one."
