Hit-and-Run Accidents in Florida
Hit-and-run crashes are a serious issue across Florida, especially on major highways like I-95, where high-speed traffic increases the danger of collisions. Fleeing the scene of an accident involving injuries is a crime under Florida law, and authorities actively pursue offenders to hold them accountable.
Victims of hit-and-run accidents often face challenges in securing compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. If the at-fault driver is not located, victims may need to rely on uninsured motorist coverage or seek legal assistance to explore other options.
