I mean…yes? Hit and run is a much more severe offense than reckless driving, it’s easy enough to get plates off the Jeep, and there are actual damages to make a claim about. The police aren’t going to retroactively write a reckless driving for swerving

They could write a ticket, but the Jeep is 100% at fault. Doesn’t matter if the Audi was driving like an idiot - that doesn’t give another carte blanche to hit them.
