Failure to stop at the scene of an accident is 3 points on the licence and a fine based on weekly income to a maximum of £500.
Careless driving is betwnn 3 and 6 points plus a fine as above. As he cannot be dual charged the more serius charge will be prosecuted but it's difficult to prove the careless without an independant witness. As it was on private property none of the above may apply, it might be a civil case. Small claims at County Court I would guess.
