A hit and run collision is both a frustrating and scary event.  We all naturally expect that those involved in a crash will remain at the scene and cooperate with law enforcement.  This is more than just a moral duty, it is legally required.  However, in some cases, driver choose to flee before police can arrive.

There are many situations in which hit and runs occur.  The fleeing driver may be impaired, may not have insurance or may be the subject of some other legal trouble in which they do not wish to have contact with police.  In these cases, they feel justified in leaving the scene and attempting to place responsibility for their actions on others.
