Hit and Run Accidents in South Carolina

The term ‘hit and run’ is used to describe an automobile accident that happens when the driver causes damage, injury, or death to another person or vehicle and then leaves the scene of the accident without reporting it to the proper authorities. Hit and run accidents are extremely difficult to deal with. Not only is there often very limited evidence left at the scene of the accident but usually, there are very few, if any,  witnesses to the events. It can be particularly challenging to know who was at fault and what events lead up to the accident.
