Today while driving down a back street I got into a very minor accident.

I was driving and came upon a van backing up slowly. I stopped, put the 4-ways on, then put the car in reverse and started backing up. I went probably 20 feet then -Crunch- I made contact with a small car. I'm not sure if I backed into them or they ran into me. Anyway,only paint scrape occurred and we exchanged info but no report was done.

What are the laws like around here? Should I expect terrible things? I took a dozen pictures or so just in case they decided to rip the bumper off and accuse me of doing worse.
