I was driving a bicycle and was involved in an accident when I came in contact with a pedestrian who was crossing the bike lane. Was I required to give my identification to the injured pedestrian?

Yes. The Vehicle and Traffic Law requires that anyone who has operated a bike and knows that he or she has been in an accident in which another person has suffered personal injury, to stop and provide his or her name and residential address to the injured person. If the police are present you must provide this information to the police. If police are not at the scene, you should as soon as practicable, report the accident to a police precinct nearest to the location of the accident. Leaving the scene of such an incident without providing the information is a violation. If you are over 18 and leave the scene of an accident where you have reason to believe that someone was seriously injured, then such conduct may be a class B misdemeanor depending on the severity of the injury. In other words, if you are in any accident whatsoever, stop and exchange information. It is prudent to call and have a policeman handle the situation.
