Hit and Run Charges
When a person is involved in a traffic accident it is a natural instinct to flee. In the State of California, this is considered Hit and Run whether you were at fault of not. The truth is, it is your duty as a citizen to report any traffic accident to the DMV within 30 days. Failure to do so will result in a minimum of suspension of your driving privileges and require you to file an SR22 insurance form for 1 year.
If you have been charged with Hit and Run you should be aware of several things:
- The possible out comes of your Hit and Run Case
- Options on possible Criminal Defense Strategies
- DMV Regulations and Penalties surrounding Hit and Run
- Your financial liability and associated ramifications
Hit and Run in the state of California is when a participant in a traffic accident leaves the scene of the accident. Even if you did not cause the accident you must remain on the scene until the authorities arrive. Depending on damages and injuries this can be a felony or a misdemeanor.
