Hit-And-Run Accidents Briefly Explained
A hit-and-run accident takes place when a driver involved in a collision with a person, vehicle, or property leaves the scene without providing their contact information or rendering assistance to the injured party. In Pennsylvania, leaving the scene of an accident is a very serious offense, and the penalties can be severe, especially if the accident results in injury or death.
If you are a victim of a hit-and-run accident, it is critical that you report it to the police immediately and also report it to your own insurance company. It is also essential that you contact Lenahan & Dempsey right away, to help guide you through what can be a complex process to recover uninsured benefits from your own insurance company if the driver of the hit-and-run accident cannot be identified.
