Stop and Report the Accident

A hit-and-run collision is more than just a traffic violation, it’s a crime that can lead to serious consequences for both the victim and the driver. If you’re involved in a collision, it’s your legal and moral duty to stay at the scene, provide help, and cooperate with authorities.

As a driver, you have a responsibility to stop, exchange information, and report the accident. This includes providing your name, address, driver’s license number, and insurance information. If you fail to do so, you are not only breaking the law but also leaving victims without the support they need.
