What Can Make Pedestrian Hit-and-Run Crashes Difficult to Investigate?
Hit-and-run pedestrian crashes can leave investigators with limited information about the vehicle involved. Evidence such as vehicle parts, paint transfers, roadway marks, and surveillance footage may help identify a vehicle that leaves the scene. Witness accounts can also provide details about the vehicle’s appearance, direction of travel, and actions before or after the impact.
The pedestrian’s location and the vehicle’s position can provide additional evidence. Investigators may examine traffic camera footage, footage from nearby businesses, lighting conditions, roadway markings, and physical evidence left at the scene. These details can help establish the sequence of events and identify a vehicle involved in a fatal collision.
