The worst case scenario concenring the matter that you have written about is that you will be convicted of a felony hit and run, fined a substantial amount of money, jailed, ordered to do community service work and have your driver's license suspended.
I suggest that if you were involved in the incident that you are writing about that you consult with a criminal defense attorney to advise you on the best way to resolve the matter.
