The consequences of not stopping will cause the highway patrol, sheriff or police calling and/or coming to your home to arrest you. It is called a hit and run when you do this and it is illegal. You could lose your license, be heavily fined and/or go to jail.

What are the consequences of not stopping if your involved in a car accident?
In every state there is a legal requirement to stop if you are involved in a collision even if the collision is not your fault. Leaving the scene is the " hit and run" crime. The charge is likely more serious if a injury or death is involved. My advice would be to contact police and get it straightened out before it becomes worse

What is the difference between being legal and being ethical?
Being legal means following the laws and not breaking any. It may not always be ethical. For example if you are involved in an auto accident, almost anywhere being legal means stopping and not leaving the scene of the accident. It does not require you to assist any victims. Any others passing by are not legally required to stop. Being ethical, or moral, would involve stopping and helping accident victims whether or not you are involved in the accident or just.
