Hit-and-Run Collisions in Queens
Hit-and-run crashes like the one on Linden Place are among the most devastating and frustrating for victims, as they add emotional distress and delay access to justice. In this case, someone was left injured while the responsible driver chose to flee — an illegal act that endangers lives and complicates medical response.
Flushing is one of Queens’ most densely populated neighborhoods, where roadways are often congested and pedestrian traffic is heavy. Accidents in this area are not uncommon, but the severity increases significantly when the at-fault party leaves the scene without offering assistance or waiting for authorities.
Local officials continue urging drivers to stop, remain on scene, and report any accident involving injuries. Failure to do so is a criminal offense and can result in harsher penalties once the individual is located.
