If you are involved in an accident with your vehicle, you are obliged to stop and give your name and address to anyone who reasonably requires it. This is a legal duty on any driver involved in an accident where there is damage to property or where someone is injured. If you cannot stop and report an accident, 
you are required at least to report the matter to the police right away.
By failing to stop and not reporting an accident, you are committing a criminal offence (section 170 of the Road Traffic Act 1988).
My son was involved in an accident and he was advised it was likely he would get charged with careless driving. I contacted Scottish Driving Law and got invaluable free advice both over the phone and via email, whilst waiting to hear if the charge was going to court.
The law is complicated and Joe explained everything explicitly in simple terms and never at any time did I feel apprehensive about getting him to explain things again.
I would advise anyone looking for information to contact Joe.
