What Happens During a Hit-and-Run Investigation?
Hit-and-run collisions often require investigators to gather information from witnesses, vehicle descriptions, roadway evidence, and any available surveillance or dash camera footage. Even limited details, such as the type of vehicle or its direction of travel, can help identify the driver involved.
These cases may take longer to resolve because the driver has left before investigators can document their vehicle or obtain a statement. Physical evidence from the damaged vehicles and the roadway can also provide valuable information about how the collision occurred. As the investigation progresses, additional facts may become available to clarify the circumstances surrounding the crash.
