Police said they they received multiple calls about a collision involving a Nissan Leaf and a Holden Commodore on Flemington Road just before 11pm on Saturday, August 19.
Witnesses told police three men fled the Commodore shortly after it and the Leaf collided. One of the four people in the Leaf recieved minor injuries in the crash.
Police searched the area and said they found three men nearby.
"As none of them nominated a driver of the vehicle, all were subsequently arrested and charged with failing to provide particulars following a collision, failing to render assistance to an injured person and either refusing to provide a breath sample or drink driving," police said in a statement.
The men are scheduled to appear in court in October, police said.
They urged anyone with information about the crash or dash-cam footage of the Commodore before the collision to contact Crime Stoppers via 1800 333 000 or via its website and quote reference 7515090.
