Hit-and-Run Accidents in Virginia
Hit-and-run accidents, like the one on Salem Church Road, are serious offenses that can leave victims without immediate medical aid or financial support. Virginia law requires all drivers involved in accidents to remain at the scene and provide assistance if necessary.
These crashes often result from reckless driving, distractions, or impaired motorists. Victims of hit-and-run accidents may still have options for compensation through uninsured motorist coverage or legal claims.
