It depends upon the wording of the statute in your particular state - but - not a good idea. As a general rule - in the case of a personal injury collision - you are required to stay on the scene until the arrival of an investigator. Your intentions MAY have been good - BUT - who knows what YOUR condition was at the time. Perhaps you were impaired and didn't wish to be interrogated and/or found out?
