Car permit · Crashes and insurance

Your car causes minor damage to a parked vehicle, and its owner is nowhere to be found. What are you required to do?

Correct answer: Stop, then either find the owner or leave your name and address in a note.

Answer options

  1. AOnly report the crash to the Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS)
  2. BNothing, as long as the damage to the other car is minor
  3. CStop, then either find the owner or leave your name and address in a note Correct

Why

Under A.R.S. 28-664, a driver who hits an unattended vehicle must stop and either tell its owner who they are or leave a written note in a place on that vehicle where it will be seen, giving their name and address. The law does not require a report to DPS for this kind of crash, and minor damage does not excuse you from leaving notice.
