Car Accidents in Florida

Hit-and-run accidents remain a troubling issue across Florida. In 2023, more than 104,000 hit-and-run crashes were reported statewide, many resulting in serious injury or death. These incidents often leave victims without immediate answers and needing urgent medical care and legal support.

Understanding what to do after a hit-and-run crash can make a big difference. Here are some important tips victims should follow in these situations:

Stay at the Scene and Call 911: Even if the other driver flees, remain at the location. Contact emergency services immediately. Your health and safety come first, and staying at the scene ensures that police can create an official report.
Document Everything You Can: Try to remember details about the vehicle that fled—color, make, model, direction of travel, or license plate digits. Take photos of damage, debris, or injuries. All this can support a future claim or help identify the suspect.
Speak to Witnesses: If others saw the crash, ask for their contact details. Their account of the incident can be valuable to law enforcement and for your legal case. Eyewitnesses often notice important facts that you might miss in the moment.
Seek Immediate Medical Attention: Don’t delay treatment. Some injuries might not be immediately visible but could worsen over time. A medical evaluation not only helps recovery but also provides documentation necessary for your claim.
Consult a Lawyer Experienced With Hit-and-Run Cases: Legal representation can help you access insurance benefits like uninsured motorist coverage and ensure your rights are protected. An attorney can also help you navigate the legal steps involved in these often complex situations.
