I had a lapse of auto insurance in NC and I never turned in plates. I did not get the coverage reinstated with the same auto insurance company, I had a period with no insurance. This happened about six months ago. I need to know if there is anything that I can do to keep my plates ? I need to be able to get to work and to school. Is there a fine that I can pay? I have never had a lapse of insurance in the past. My auto is insured and has been with the exception of about two weeks when I switched insurance on my car.

While pulling out of a parking lot a few weeks ago I accidentally hit a car. I left a note on the car, but minutes after leaving the lot (the other car was still there) it began raining. I don't know if they got my note. Is it possible I can be charged with a hit and run? Will this make my insurance rates go up? I'm very scared now. I haven't seen the car since but I haven't gotten a call from them. I did not get the license place number.
