Hit-and-Run Accidents in Florida

Florida sees a significant number of hit-and-run accidents each year, with thousands of reported incidents involving fleeing drivers. In 2023 alone, more than 104,000 hit-and-run crashes occurred across the state, resulting in injuries and fatalities. These collisions leave victims with medical expenses and legal challenges as they seek justice.

Hit-and-run accidents often leave victims in difficult situations. Here are some common reasons drivers flee the scene:

  • Driving Without Insurance: Uninsured drivers may escape the scene to avoid financial and legal repercussions.
  • Impaired Driving: Drivers under the influence may not want to face DUI charges, leading them to leave an accident.
  • Outstanding Warrants: Individuals with warrants for their arrest may try to avoid detection by fleeing after a crash.
  • Fear of Consequences: Some drivers panic and make reckless decisions out of fear of legal trouble.
  • Unlicensed Drivers: Those without valid licenses often flee to avoid penalties for driving unlawfully.
