car accident

Question Details: I was recently in a car accident and called the police to report it, I informed the operator on the phone that everybody was fine and did not need EMS, but I was just really shaken up. While waiting for the officer to come to the scene my friend passed the accident and saw me there and stopped. When I started to explain the situation I began to hyperventilate and asked her to take me to the hospital. I got in the car and left before the officer arrived. The operator on the phone that I had talked to knew my name and my number, and the tow truck was already there when I left. On the way to the hospital I remembered I lost my health insurance recently and could not go to the hospital. I did not return to the accident. I figured everything would of already been done and over with. My question is how might this turn out? Ticket? jail time? fines?
