What Should Drivers Do After a Hit-and-Run?

If you are involved in a hit-and-run, you should stop when it is safe and remain at the location if you can do so. Leaving can make it harder to identify what happened and locate the people involved. Witnesses can also help by recording the time, direction of travel, vehicle description, and any visible damage they noticed.

Dashcam footage may capture details that are difficult to remember later, including a vehicle’s color, body style, or license plate information. Home security cameras near intersections and nearby businesses may also record passing traffic. Anyone with relevant footage should preserve the original recording and avoid editing it. Promptly sharing available information with investigators can help establish a clearer account of what occurred.
