How long do you have to file a hit and run?
Immediately. It would be on file with the police station that has jurisdiction over the location where the accident occurred.

Besides, if the police do track you down, the penalty is far greater than if you report the accident yourself, even at this stage.

In Florida you need to give the other vehicle owner your info. If they are not in the car you need to put a note on their car with your info. Calling the police is best as you can get a police report to prove it. As long as you get your info to the other person or the police, it is NOT a Hit and Run. If you flee the scene without giving your info to the police or the other car owner, it IS a Hit and Run.
