Firstly, it is illegal to drive on public roads without a drivers license.

Generally though, if no other car was involved and no property was damaged and no claims to be presented then you are perfectly OK in leaving the scene. There is simply nothing to report.

Here is an example. At the age of 19 (Licensed of course), I ran my car into a ditch on the side of the road (an accident). Who did I call? Well I called a tow truck to come pull me out of the ditch, paid the driver and then I drove my car away. There was no damages and nothing to report.

A police officer happened along while I was waiting on the tow truck. The officer kindly asked if I needed any assistance or could he call someone for me. I told him no thanks and that a tow truck was already on the way. I then waived him off and he waived good bye to me.

AnswerWhat happens legally depends on which state the accident occurred; if drugs or alcohol were involved; if there was property damage; if you had other people in your car; if anyone was injured; if there was damage to your vehicle; if you are insured or your vehicle damaged and plan to submit a claim to the insurance company for injuries or damages. Also, if you damaged property, private or public, you should be liable for those costs. However, without these facts, no one here can tell you what happens legally or financially.

What happens otherwise I can tell you. If you avoided consequenses this time, you will continue to drive without a license (and I'll guess without insurance) and will soon be in trouble that you won't be able to flee. As you continue to shirk responsibility, your life gets more and more complicated, with more and more to cover up and try not to get caught. Which will lead you to getting caught. What happens then is that you will end up in jail or prison and we (the public) will not have to worry about sharing the road with you for a while.

Yes. Like a hit and run?

What would happen to the license of the driver who was involved in an accident and did not stop to help person the who was injured?

This would depend upon the laws in your State/Country. In the USA If your vehicle is directly involved in the accident and you dont stop your license could be either suspended for 1-5 years or revoked completely depending upon State laws concerning what is called "Hit and Run" or "fleeing the scene of an accident" which are criminal charges. Also depending upon your State Your License can be suspended or revoked if the person dies as a result of the accident called Vehicular homicide, negligent homicide or manslaughter which falls under a charge of Murder (usually 3rd degree) Different States have different definitions concerning Degrees of murder. If you are not directly involed in the accident (but witnessed it) and you leave you could be charged with whats called "leaving the scene of an accident" which is different than "Fleeing" as above,and your license could be suspended.
