The pedestrian is very fortunate that the police found the driver responsible for hitting him, seeing as thousands of drivers get away with causing hit-and-run accidents. The police are determining whether the driver was driving distracted or driving under the influence. They’re also checking the speed he was going at the time of the accident. They’re even inspecting his car to determine if there were any mechanical issues or defective auto parts. Once the police conclude why the accident occurred, the injured victim could file a personal injury lawsuit to help him cover current and medical expenses.
