Update from the Police this morning: driver was a 16 yr old male with a graduated licence (that means his licence is gone now) driving his mom's 2006 Ford Escape. They did a field sobriety test and he passed (0 readings). He admitted to hitting me and hitting the garage (two points on his licence for each accident) and has two charges of failure to exchange particulars (8 points for each charge on his licence).
So he now will have 20 points on his licence which means the surcharge will be $2500. The surcharge is reduced by half each year your accident free. So it will take him 6 years to clear it off his licence and cost a total of $4900. If you don't pay it, the points don't go down. This is on top of what the judge will charge him ($250 per incident?) . He also has to pay the deductible on his moms vehicle.
