一个月前碰了别人的车，没留下保险号就走了。
被目击者发现了，警察找到家里，我人没在。留了封信说让提供司机信息。
想问问除了赔车外，有没有其它法律责任要承担？

求大律师给点指引，心悸中。。。。

您好,根据Land Transport Act 1998 规定，出现车祸时您应该停下来，察看情况，伤害，还有
联系车主。违反者可以收到车辆被扣押还有被起诉等处理。

以下是相关条例：
Driver's duties where accident occurs

(1)
If an accident arising directly or indirectly from the operation of a vehicle occurs to a person or to a vehicle, the driver or rider of the vehicle must—
- (a)
  stop and ascertain whether a person has been injured; and
- (b)
  render all practicable assistance to any injured persons.
(2)
The driver or rider of the vehicle must, if required by an enforcement officer or any other person involved in the accident, give the officer or other person—
- (a)
  the driver's or rider's name and address; and
- (b)
  the name and address of the owner of the vehicle; and
- (c)
  if the vehicle concerned is a motor vehicle, the number or letters or other expression on the registration plates assigned to the vehicle.
(3)
If the accident involves an injury to or the death of a person, the driver or rider must report the accident to an enforcement officer as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any case not later than 24 hours after the time of the accident, unless the driver or rider is incapable of doing so by reason of injuries sustained by him or her in the accident.

(4)
If the accident involves damage to an unoccupied motor vehicle or to other property belonging to a person other than the driver or rider, the driver or rider must (unless he or she is incapable of doing so by reason of injuries sustained by him or her in the accident), not later than 48 hours after the time of the accident, report to the owner—
- (a)
  the driver's or rider's name and address; and
- (b)
  the number on the registration plates assigned to the motor vehicle; and
- (c)
  the location of the accident.
(5)
If the accident involves damage to an unoccupied motor vehicle or to other property belonging to a person other than the driver or rider, but the owner cannot readily be contacted or identified, the driver or rider must report the accident to an enforcement officer as soon as practicable and in any case within 60 hours after the time of the accident.

(6)
If the motor vehicle involved in the accident is a fire engine or an ambulance travelling to an emergency, the driver complies with subsection (1) if he or she stops the vehicle and sets down a member of the crew who is equipped with a first-aid kit and discharges all the other duties imposed on a driver by that subsection.

(7)
Subsections (3) to (5) do not apply if the driver or rider has been arrested or detained as a result of the accident.

(8)
This section does not apply to a rail vehicle unless that vehicle is a light rail vehicle

不过就您的事情情节来看，如果当时没人在车内，有可能是民事责任，您需要赔偿。

而严重一点警方会控告你Careless Driving 或者Failing to Stop两罪，第一条如果有理由解释可以打掉，第二条您是无法辩护的，如果是这种情况，您就需要考虑是否要找律师帮您申请Diversion 了。

您首先要做的是提供给警方事实和相关信息，协助对方调查。毕竟您是肇事者。

当然，您也可以根据Bill of Rights来保持沉默，这样警方会issue warrant，让您面对太平绅士出庭解释，如果您要是从头到底什么都不说，警方也不能把你怎么样。（当然，我不建议这种做法，因为这是我们律师界所说的钻法律空子，不是很道德）

希望回答可以帮助到您。
