After any crash with an injury or damage, you have to stop. If the other person is there, you have to show your chauffeur’s licence and your TLC licence, and give them your name, your licence numbers, your insurer and your policy number.
Falling short of that exchange is the violation. You do not have to have driven off.
| Fine | $350 |
| Points | 3 |
| Appearance | Required. You cannot settle this one by mail. Someone has to appear at OATH |
| Repeat | More than 3 in 12 months: up to 30 days off, or licence gone |
There is a second charge underneath it. You also have to tell the vehicle’s owner about any crash right away. Not doing that is a $100 fine and 3 more points.
For fleet and base drivers these two get written together all the time. That is 6 points from one incident, which is the suspension threshold on its own.
Because appearance is required, this is the summons where having someone appear for you pays for itself. We go, you keep the shift.
