Leaving the scene of an accident is a very serious violation. In most states, leaving the scene of the accident where there is a personal injury is a crime of the 4th degree. Driving without insurance penalties differ from state to state. For instance, driving without New Jersey car insurance will bring you mandatory penalties imposed that are greater than the first offender penalties for drunk driving or possession of marijuana. Mandatory penalties include automatic a $300.00 fine, loss of license for one year, and a period of community service to be determined by the Municipal Court.
