What if I was injured in a hit-and-run?

If a hit-and-run driver hurt you, you might still have options for recovering compensation for your injuries and losses. If you have auto insurance, you may be entitled to file a claim with your own insurance company when you were injured by a hit-and-run driver in a pedestrian accident. Hit-and-run drivers who cannot be identified are deemed uninsured drivers, allowing you to file a claim under the uninsured motorist coverage in your auto insurance policy.
