With modern plastic bumpers in particular, you often can't see anything after a slight bump, but there is hidden bodywork damage underneath.

And is it a criminal offence?\">What exactly is a hit and run? And is it a criminal offence?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hit and run, also known colloquially as hit and run, is a criminal offence. If the other party involved in an accident leaves the scene of the accident without reporting it, they are guilty of the offence of hit and run under Section 142 of the German Criminal Code. The prerequisite for this is that he was involved in the accident and you or the police were unable to establish his personal details. In principle, hit and run is a punishable offence. Depending on the circumstances, fugitives may face a fine or a prison sentence of up to three years. They may also be banned from driving or have their driving licence revoked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important:<\/strong> If there is no damage, there can be no hit-and-run. But be careful! Not all damage is immediately visible from the outside. However, if the person who caused the damage leaves the scene of the accident, a hit-and-run can still be established afterwards. The prerequisite for this is that he did not enable his personal details to be established. This also applies if the person who caused the accident was unaware of it at the time of the hit-and-run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It is strongly advised to inform the injured party or the police in person.<\/strong> Good to know: A note on the windscreen of the injured party is not sufficient to enable the exchange of personal details. It is not possible to ensure that the injured party actually receives this note.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gibt-es-ueberhaupt-eine-fahrerflucht-ohne-schaden\" title=\"Is there such a thing as a hit-and-run without damage?\">Is there such a thing as a hit-and-run without damage?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A damage-free accident is a contradiction in terms. An accident only exists if personal injury or property damage has occurred. A hit and run requires that an accident has occurred. However, an accident always results in personal injury or property damage. Conclusion: No accident without damage and no hit-and-run without an accident.<br><strong>Caution! If you cannot see any damage to your or the opposing vehicle with the naked eye, this does not mean that there is no damage.<\/strong><br>A hit-and-run without immediately visible damage is still possible! Even a small, barely visible scratch can be quite expensive. We advise you to take the safe route - assume an accident first. This is the only way to avoid criminal prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is not a hit and run?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class='ff1-notification-box'><div class='ff1-notification-box__title'>Circumstances that do not qualify as a hit and run<\/div><div class='ff1-notification-box__content'><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Leave the scene of the accident to report the damage immediately to the nearest police station<\/li>\n<li>Leaving the scene of the accident to get help for injured persons<\/li>\n<li>Continue driving if it can be proven that no damage has occurred<\/li>\n<li>Driving on after a wildlife accident is not a hit-and-run because there is no injured party.
