Hit-and-Run Pedestrian Accidents in California

Unfortunately, almost one million hit-and-run accidents happen every year in the United States, with the leading cause being negligence. When drivers know that their negligent behavior caused them to run over somebody and they proceed to drive off, it’s usually due to fear of being arrested or fined. However, when the police catch the suspects, the consequences are always amplified since the culprits failed to remain at the scene and tend to any injured victims.

Once the police catch the driver responsible, it’s likely that the injured pedestrian will qualify to file a personal injury lawsuit with the help of a California personal injury lawyer.
