Hit-and-Run Accidents in California

Unfortunately, California ranked as the third state with the highest number of motorcycle fatalities in the country. Whenever drivers strike motorcyclists and flee the scene, it’s usually due to their criminal history or fear of creating one. Drivers who are under the influence are highly likely to flee the scene of a crash since they are not fully aware of their surroundings. For those who obtain injuries in a hit-and-run accident, it’s very important to contact an experienced California personal injury attorney immediately for assistance.
