EXCHANGE INFORMATION

If you are involved in an accident in California, you are required to provide certain information to the other parties involved. Likewise, fellow motorists, passengers or pedestrians involved in the accident must share similar information with you. This information will be needed if you are required to file a Report of Traffic Accident Occurring in California. Also, it is often wise to ask for the information of witnesses to the accident just in case you need to have them testify at a later date. The key information to exchange in the aftermath of an accident includes:

Name, address and contact details
Driver license number
License plate number of the vehicles involved
Auto insurance or other evidence of financial responsibility for the motorists involved.
Car Accident Information for California | DMV

In the few fender benders I've been in, I've always exchanged info and never had the CHP involved.
