What Should Drivers Do After a Hit-and-Run?
Drivers involved in a hit-and-run should, when possible, move to a safe place and check for injuries. Anyone who is hurt should seek medical attention promptly, particularly when there is bleeding or a possible head injury.
If it is safe to do so, drivers should record details about the fleeing vehicle, including its make, model, color, direction of travel, and license plate information. Photographs of the vehicles and roadway can also preserve useful evidence.
Witnesses may provide valuable information about what happened. Drivers should avoid chasing a fleeing vehicle because doing so can create additional danger. Reporting the incident promptly can help preserve details while they are still fresh.
