Fatal Hit-and-Run Statistics

Leaving the scene of an accident is against the law. In the United States, a hit-and-run accident happens every single day. Since 2006, more than 2,000 hit-and-run fatalities have been in the US.

The number of hit-and-run incidents has increased. The percentage of fatalities attributable to hit-and-run drivers has increased by 7% since 2009. Road accidents have killed more people, and hit-and-run drivers significantly contribute to this trend.

An average of one pedestrian accident had occurred every year over the previous five years. Most of these incidents—about half of them—end in injuries, but only about one in twenty results in fatalities. The majority of these incidents occur in the late afternoon and early evening.

To avoid danger, use crosswalks and walk against traffic flow, but drivers must also pay attention to pedestrians. Always look both ways to see if you have enough time to cross the street before the next car passes.
