Hit-and-Run Accident Statistics

No one enjoys being in a car accident caused by another driver’s carelessness. If the other driver refuses to pull over or accept responsibility for the accident, this situation will deteriorate significantly.

Hit-and-run accidents cause too many car accidents. In 2016, 2,049 people in the United States were killed in hit-and-run accidents. According to a recent study, the United States experiences 682,000 hit-and-runs each year. Cars run over pedestrians at least once a week.

Pedestrian accidents are most often caused by other drivers’ carelessness and disregard for the safety of pedestrians.

Decisions to leave an accident can be made for many different reasons that don’t always agree. The risk of a car accident increases when a person is in a precarious situation, such as an immigrant.
