I was reversing in the car park (parallel parking back to back )and a man was opening his boot and I slowly revered into the car. He moved aside and got furious. I totally understnd the man's frustation. I was wrong not to see properly.
I got out and kept saying sorry as he was very angry and furious. Many people were watching me ( also probably taking photos etc) but I just wanted to apologise so I kept repeating ' I am really very sorry' to the man although he kept shouting at me. I was actually happy that he was as alright and capable to shout at me. His wife asked him to calm down and after a little while he did.
So then I asked if he and the car were fine. He said they were. I offered my number and name but he wont take it. I asked the wife to take my name and details she did not want them too. They kept saying ' just forget it, careful next time' and I again asked to take my details and the couple said ' dont worry, keep careful next time' and went into the car. I went into mine and drove off.
I then went to online reporting in police station and said that unforturnately I dont have any details of them or their vehicle but I gave all my details. The accident spot, date etc. I got a reference number from the online form. No damage done to any cars nor people ( only emotional I guess to the man, the wife and me)
So is this a hit and run as I did not give them details?. I am assuming one of the spectators will report me. So shall I say that the man was ok not taking my details?
Please help.
