I was driving in slow, close traffic and everyone had to stop suddenly, about 5 cars ahead. Everyone slammed on their brakes, and the SUV behind me didn't stop in time and rear ended my car, they were the only ones who didn't stop in time. It wasn't a hard hit at all, just a bumper to bumper. Traffic started moving again, and the SUV behind me didn't seem to be pulling over, so I just started driving again and got off at my regular exit. I checked in the rear view mirror and the front of their car was completely fine. My car was fine too, when I got home, not a scratch and it's just a little coup.. I was not supposed to be driving as I have a suspended license and the car had dead tags, etc. I would have stopped regardless if it had been more than a bump or if the other person seemed like they were pulling over. I don't normally drive, but I was very sick and really needed to go pick up some meds from the drugstore and nobody was available go help me out. Today my sister got a letter in the mail that the police were investigating 'an accident that her vehicle may have been involved in', as the car was registered in her name the last time it was being driven years ago (we used to share). What are my options? Can it be proven that I was driving since nobody stopped or called the police to the scene? I really don't want to get pulled into a big court case for this- the accident 100% wasn't my fault and was literally just a tap. I never drive, this was an isolated incident in an emergency situation. My license had been suspended only for a technicality, trying to pay off fines and I'm working on getting that squared away. What will happen if she tells them she doesn't have my forwarding address and contact info? Can I be charged if that plate number was reported but nobody else can corroborate? I'm not one to dodge the law but if I can only be held liable if I admit my presence, I won't. The person that hit me was either too close or not watching the road and I don't want to owe thousands because of their driving.
