Yes, in Georgia, you can be charged with hit and run even on private property. The law requires drivers to stop and provide their information if they are involved in an accident that causes damage to someone else's property, regardless of whether it occurs on public or private land. Failing to do so can lead to criminal charges and potential penalties. Always ensure to exchange information and report any accidents, regardless of the location.

What if you hit something and people see you but don't get your plate number and you leave What happens?

I'm not sure what the question is asking in regards to what was hit, but whether it be another car, a fixed object, or a pedestrian that you hit, the simple answer is you can be arrested and charged with leaving the scene of an accident. In the case of hitting another car, you can also be charged with damaging private property, reckless driving, etc. If you hit a person, fess up. Leaving that scene will cause you to be charged with a hit-and-run and if the person dies, you can be charged with vehicular manslaughter or even murder. Even if they don't die, very serious charges will come back on you when they catch you. And you can NEVER be certain that someone didn't see you!


How much trouble can you get into for hitting the mailbox outside of a apartment complex and leaving?

Makes no difference what you hit. If you leave it is hit and run, or (in some states) 'leaving after colliding.' The fact that only non-moveable property was damaged is immaterial. If the mailbox wasn't just a private mailbox for the apartment, but happened to be an 'official' US Postal Service mailbox, you could, theoretically, be charged with destruction of government property.
