Hit-and-Run Accidents in California
Hit-and-run accidents are a serious concern across California, where high traffic volumes and dense urban areas like Huntington Park increase the risk of such incidents. These crashes often leave victims struggling to address medical expenses, vehicle repairs, and insurance claims without the responsible party being identified.
Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable, as the lack of physical protection often results in more severe injuries in collisions. Witness accounts and evidence collection are critical in these cases to locate the fleeing driver and hold them accountable.
