Ok, so I got into an accident with a stalled vehicle, I was travelling down a road, changed lanes and there was a car stopped in a non stopping zone apparently for running out of gas. Its emergency blinkers were not working as well. I realize that I hit a stopped vehicle, so it is probably mine to blame. Police came, my car received more damage, but theres would likely be totaled due to its lesser value. Both our cars are towed off, and the police gave me the ok to go home. I exchanged phone numbers with the driver, and when i got home got a call from the actual owner. They accuse of fleeing the scene and are demanding I pay for a rental car. I told them to contact the insurance or the police if they have more questions and hung up. I want to remain helpful, but dont want to get harassing calls and fleeced at the same time. Any pointers in what to do in this situation.
