§ 42-49. ACCIDENTS.
   (A)   The driver of any vehicle involved in an accident resulting in a nonfatal injury to any person shall immediately stop his or her vehicle at the scene of such accident, or as close thereto as possible, but shall then forthwith return to and in every event shall remain at the scene of the accident until he or she has given his or her correct name, address, and the registration number of the vehicle he or she is driving and, upon request, exhibit his or her driver license and his or her security verification form, as defined in 47 O.S. § 7-600, to the person injured or the driver or occupant of, or person attending, any vehicle collided with, and shall render to any person injured in such accident reasonable assistance, including the carrying or making arrangement for the carrying of such persons to a physician, surgeon, or hospital for medical and surgical treatment if it is apparent that this treatment is necessary, or if such is requested by the injured person. Each such stop shall be made without obstructing traffic more than is necessary.
   (B)   The driver of a vehicle which is in any manner involved in an accident resulting in the death of any person shall immediately stop such vehicle at the scene of such accident or as close thereto as possible but shall then forthwith return to and in every event shall remain at the scene of the accident until he or she has fulfilled the requirements of 47 O.S. § 10-104. Each such stop shall be made without obstructing traffic more than is necessary.
   (C)   The driver of any vehicle involved in an accident resulting only in damage to a vehicle which is driven or attended by any person shall immediately stop such vehicle at the scene of such accident or as close thereto as possible but shall forthwith return to and in every event shall remain at the scene of such accident until he or she has fulfilled the requirements of 47 O.S. § 10-103. Every such stop shall be made without obstructing traffic more than is necessary.

The traffic offense violation shall constitute probable cause for purposes of 47 O.S. § 752, and the procedures found in 47 O.S. § 752 shall be followed to determine the presence of alcohol or controlled dangerous substances within the driver’s blood system.
   (E)   The driver of a vehicle involved in an accident resulting in injury to or death of any person shall immediately, by the quickest means of communication, give notice of such accident to the Police Department if such accident occurs within the city or the nearest office of the state highway patrol after complying with the requirements of 47 O.S. § 10-104.
   (F)   Any driver who provides information required by this section which is intentionally inaccurate shall be subject to the provisions of 47 O.S. § 10-103.
