Hit-and-Run Accidents in Florida
Hit-and-run crashes, such as the one on South Orange Blossom Trail, present a deeply troubling and dangerous trend on Florida roads. When a driver flees the scene after causing harm, it not only delays medical assistance but also denies victims the immediate support and justice they deserve.
This stretch of S Orange Blossom Trl sees thousands of vehicles daily, and its intersections—like the one at Taft Vineland Rd—are common sites for high-speed or congested traffic collisions. In hit-and-run scenarios, victims are left vulnerable to worsening injuries, and investigations often rely heavily on witnesses or surveillance footage to track down those responsible.
Injuries from these types of crashes may include head trauma, spinal injuries, broken bones, or internal bleeding—all of which require swift medical intervention. When care is delayed or the incident is not reported quickly, outcomes can be more severe.
Florida law requires drivers involved in crashes resulting in injury to remain at the scene and render aid. Fleeing is a felony offense, and those found guilty can face serious legal consequences in addition to civil liability.
