Hit-and-Run Accidents in Tennessee
Hit-and-run crashes are not only dangerous but also deeply unsettling for victims, who are left to deal with their injuries without immediate answers or accountability. In Tennessee, leaving the scene of a crash involving injury is a criminal offense. Unfortunately, hit-and-runs remain a serious problem in urban areas like Memphis.
Crashes like the one on East Raines Rd can result in a wide range of injuries—from soft tissue damage and broken bones to more severe trauma. When the at-fault driver flees, victims often face delays in accessing compensation, which can complicate the recovery process and create additional emotional and financial stress.
Victims are encouraged to seek medical attention immediately, file a detailed police report, and consult with professionals who can help protect their rights—especially when the responsible party is not yet known.
