Car permit · Crashes and insurance
Your car scrapes an empty parked vehicle in Oklahoma, causing minor damage, and you cannot locate the owner. What must you do?
Correct answer: Fix a note to the vehicle that gives your name, address, and phone number.
Answer options
- ADrive on, since the damage is only minor
- BStay with the vehicle until the owner returns, however long that takes
- CFix a note to the vehicle that gives your name, address, and phone number Correct
Why
Oklahoma law lets you meet your duty to the owner of an unattended vehicle by leaving a written note in a visible spot that identifies you, along with your insurance information, when the owner cannot be found. Leaving without doing so counts as hit-and-run, and you do not have to wait indefinitely for the owner.
