Investigators may rely on vehicle descriptions, witness accounts, roadway evidence, and available video to identify the fleeing vehicle.

Drivers who witness a crash or have relevant dashcam footage may be able to provide useful information to investigators. Anyone involved in a collision should move to a safe location when possible and follow instructions from emergency personnel.

Drivers approaching a crash scene should slow down and remain alert for disabled vehicles, emergency responders, and sudden changes in traffic flow.
