What Should Drivers Do After a Hit-and-Run?
A hit-and-run can make it difficult to determine what happened because one vehicle leaves before anyone can exchange information. Anyone who witnesses such a crash should avoid following the fleeing vehicle and instead provide useful details to authorities when safe.
Helpful information can include the vehicle type, color, license plate, direction of travel, and a description of the roadway. Dashcam footage or other recordings may also help establish what occurred.
When possible, people involved in a crash should move to a safe position and seek medical attention for confirmed injuries. Drivers should also stay alert for approaching traffic while waiting for assistance.
