Having this done to me about 2 years ago, no it isn't hit and run, but it might be considered fraud if the police can convince the DA to prosecute. Needless to say, the OWNER of the car can get slapped with a misdemeanor for allowing the car to be driven without insurance. Call the police department of the city where the accident occurred. They can give you immediate access to the registration. And ALWAYS call 911 when an accident happens. The squad can verify address and insurance info on the spot. I learned the hard way. The driver that hit me gave me a bogus name and address. If I hadn't written down the plate, we never would have gotten to the owner, who had stopped paying the insurance bills. Turns out the driver was a well known drug dealer from the Brookdale area. A guy with one brown eye, and one blue.
