You are required to notify law enforcement, and they will most likely make you pay for replacement of the sign. If you hit the sign and leave the scene without notifying police, you can be charged with a misdemeanor and will have some hefty fines to pay, plus the cost of the sign.
Leaving the scene of an accident can be a major issue. In Georgia, fines and such are handled by the individual jurisdiction where the violation occurred. Fines are different depending on the Magistrate or Probate Court that is handling the matter.
If you are involved in the accident it is a crime to leave the scene, but if you are a witness or bystander there is no problem.
Penalties for hit and run can vary from state to state. But no matter where you are it is still considered a felony if you leave the scene of a crime especially one you yourself was involved with. Heavy fines and you may face time in jail.
Hit & Run charges, which is a Felony. Fines upwards of $10,000 or more. An dif you kill someone, you will be charged with vehicular man-slaughter, and serve between 14-life in prison. Drive Safe!
Possibly.

It would be difficult to give you a DUI if they were not able to determine your condition at the scene. Scene...of an accident perhaps? You could possibly be charged with other offenses if someone saw you at the "scene."
you leave too
"Yes, for a number of reasons. If you are in an accident, someone witnesses it, and you leave the scene, it can be reported. If there is damage to your vehicle - or someone elses - most insurance companies require that the police are notified and a report is filed."
of course not.
