A person damaged someone else's car; is it sufficient for him to give charity on their behalf?

Question:
May Allah reward you. A driver backed his car up a little, and there was a light collision with a car next to him. This driver did not stop to apologize to the owner of the car in the public parking lot, but he took out three hundred riyals with the intention of giving it as charity on behalf of the owner of the damaged car. What is your guidance?

Answer:
This is not sufficient as long as he knows the owner of the car. He has to go to him and ask for his forgiveness, or pay him the amount of the damage that occurred to his car. The fact that he gives charity on his behalf does not exempt him from this, since the owner is present, he knows his location, knows his name, and can reach him. He must reach an understanding with him. Yes.
