Ah, sorry Tony, but leaving the scene of an accident when there is only property damage is not “considered a criminal offense,” at least not in New York. It’s a traffic violation, punishable by a fine up to $250. The person’s drivers license can not be suspended or “cancelled” because of it.

Of course you can sue if you can prove who did it, but reporting it to the police will bring basically the same response as if you reported any other traffic violation, like speeding or running a stop sign. That is, they won’t care.

Your lawyer should have told you this stuff.
