Full Answer
Hit-and-run claims often depend on evidence that can disappear quickly. Nearby business surveillance, dashcam footage, home cameras, vehicle debris, paint transfer, partial license plate information, witness statements, police reports, and medical records can all matter. Preserve what you can and ask nearby businesses or property owners to save footage as soon as possible.
