If you have hit a parked car, you need to leave information for the car’s owner. If you fail to do so, the accident can be considered a hit and run. However, many people are leery of leaving a whole bunch of information about themselves on the windshield of a parked car. After all, anyone can grab the piece of paper and suddenly have access to your personal information. This may leave you wondering just how much information you need to leave when you hit a parked car. Here is what should be left.

When you hit a parked car, you are required to leave your name, address, contact number and a brief explanation of the accident, such as where your car hit their car. If you are driving someone else’s car, you are also required to leave the name and phone number of the person who owns the car you were driving. This information must be placed in an obvious area, such as under the car’s windshield wipers. You are not required to leave insurance information, though it is recommended you do if you have the information handy.

When leaving your note, be sure to keep in mind that anything you state in the note can be used against you by the insurance company. As such, it is highly recommended that you keep things short and to the point. I accidently hit your bumper or scratched your car states what damage was done without stating I was on my cell phone or speeding and hit your car.
