Two days back, as I was driving back home after a friend’s wedding,
my car was hit by a reckless driver who was driving at very high speed. I
suffered a head injury, a broken arm and several cuts. The impact of the force
was so strong that it left me unconscious, so that I was unable to note down
the car’s number. As a result, it has not been possible to trace the hit and
run driver. I now have to file a claim for my injuries. However, I don’t know
who will pay for my injuries and damages. Please advice.
In most cases, the negligent driver is
liable for any injuries and damages. However, if the hit and run driver cannot
be found, your own car insurance policy may be the only source of compensation.
Your compensation claim can be covered through the following coverage:
Uninsured
motorist coverage: This covers you for injuries you
received from a hit and run accident in which the driver involved is uninsured
or cannot be found following the accident. If you file a claim under this
coverage, the insurance company will handle it just as a normal liability
claim.
Personal
injury protection coverage: This coverage pays for
medical expenses, as well as lost wages or funeral expenses, regardless of who
was at fault in the car accident.
Collision
coverage: This coverage allows you to make a claim
for vehicle repairs, regardless of who was at fault for the accident. Hit and
run victims can also file a claim for vehicle damages against their own policy
under collision coverage.

ReplyDeleteA friend of mine was a victim of a hit and run accident. He eventually died from his injuries. Doctors suggest that, had he been brought in sooner, he would have lived. The driver of the car that hit him fled the scene without calling for help. What charges can be pressed against the driver?
ReplyDeleteIt is the driver’s legal responsibility to help the injured person, call emergency medical services and report the accident to local law enforcement. If the driver fails to perform his duties after being in an accident, then he can receive a traffic ticket. If the accident results in the death of a person, then the driver can be charged with “felony hit and run.” If someone you know has been in a Connecticut hit and run accident, then The Reinken Law Firm can help. Attorney Eric Reinken will give your case full attention and will not charge you until you get justice.
