Hit-and-Run Collisions Put Pedestrians at Risk
Pedestrians have little protection when struck by a motor vehicle and may suffer significant injuries even in lower-speed collisions. Drivers involved in an injury crash are required to stop and provide reasonable assistance rather than leaving the scene.
Anyone who witnesses a hit-and-run collision should safely document any identifying details about the vehicle and provide that information to law enforcement.

Why Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney Can Help
A pedestrian injured in a hit-and-run may still have options for recovering compensation even if the responsible driver has not yet been identified. Surveillance footage from nearby businesses, witness statements, physical evidence, and applicable insurance coverage may assist in determining what occurred and identifying potential sources of recovery.
An experienced personal injury attorney can preserve available evidence, communicate with insurance companies, and help an injured pedestrian pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other recoverable losses.
