I scraped a parked car and drove off cause I didn't notice, now police filed a hit and run report?
I am posting here because I'm super stressed and need clarity.
So last night I was parking in a tight basement spot, felt a small bump, looked in my mirror, didn't see any obvious damage, so I just parked down the street. And then this afternoon dubai police called asking me to come to the traffic department right away, the owner got my plate from cameras and filed an official report for leaving the scene, hit and run under uae traffic law.
I had zero intention of dodging anything, I just didn't see any damage. What happens when I go in? criminal citation automatically? court referral? or can I explain it was a mistake, get the red accident slip for insurance, and pay the fine on the spot?
