Thank you!

I stopped and gave them the info they asked for, but that was after they chased me... Would that still be a hit and run?? I'm assuming yes.

I told them I would pay for whatever damages there may have been, even if it meant sacrificing entire pay checks. They kept telling me that I was going to "learn my lesson" which really freaked me out because the wife went inside walmart after they said that, and it was just me, my tiny sister and her husband(a man that looked to be around 50) who was yelling at me and causing a major disturbance. I felt threatened and didn't know what to do. I wanted to get back in my car and lock the doors. I was kinda glad I ended up in the walmart parking lot where there was a bunch of people and security, even though that is the worst part of all this, but it may have actually kept him from lashing out at me while his wife was gone.

What I'm scared of, is that I did drive out of the sonic parking lot pretty fast(not more than 15mph) because my sister was on the phone with my angry dad who wanted us to go to the store and come home ASAP so I may have looked like I was trying to flee, but I slowed down once I got into the walmart parking lot(they were behind me tailgating and honking, so I thought they were pissed that I slowed down.
I would have stopped had I known of the accident(could this hold up in court? Probably not since I didn't stop to give info at the scene) I would have been willing to go back to sonic and talk there where it happened if they didn't block me in.

I was very calm and collected when the cops were questioning me, I told them what happened to the best of my ability. I didn't even know where the damage was, and the people weren't telling me. The cops kept asking "where is the damage" and I kept telling them "I don't know, they didn't tell me"
I thought it was rear damage to my car, and I didn't see any so I was very confused, but the cop showed me the damage in the front, it was a pretty light scrape and there was about 6 inches of their paint none of mine came off it looked like, no dents or anything. They had several other scratches all over the back of their car and I'm not 100% sure which one they think I caused. I was going so slow(I was riding the brakes), I must not have felt it happening if it did indeed happen the way they said it did. I don't remember who I was parked next to in sonic, which obviously doesn't help my case.

I'm happy that the cop was very cool though, he made me very comfortable, the other cop talked to me like he was a close friend.

I understand what can happen, and I'm fully prepared for whatever is going to come my way. Even though it sucks because it's going to put a misdemeanor on my record and my insurance will be super high, but I guess that's the responsibility I have to take for being reckless.
I guess it's "welcome to the adult world" ._.

Will I be able to get the witness report from the police? I didn't get the info on the witnesses that were there, but they were on the phone with the police, and another guy called the cops because he saw the man screaming at me.

Whatever happens, my dad has a good lawyer and I'll have to talk to him to see what the best course of action will be.


I'm hoping the people will be willing to just take cash and drop the charges, but the world doesn't work like that unfortunately.
