What Constitutes a Hit-&-Run Under Florida Law?

A hit-and-run, also known as “leaving the scene of an accident,” is illegal under Florida Statutes § 316.061. A driver commits this offense when they fail to remain at the scene of the accident to provide necessary information or aid. Fleeing the scene of a hit-and-run accident resulting in injury, death, or property damage can lead to enhanced charges. 

Understanding your obligations on Florida roads is essential to avoid significant legal repercussions in criminal court. After a traffic accident, drivers are legally obligated to stop, render assistance if necessary, and provide their name, address, and vehicle registration number. Securing a skilled defense is paramount to defending against the life-altering consequences of a hit-and-run conviction. 

If you’re facing hit-and-run charges, it’s crucial to consult with a hit-and-run defense lawyer as soon as possible to avoid a potential felony conviction. 

If you’re accused of fleeing the scene of an accident, time is of the essence. Call (786) 244-8010 to schedule a free consultation.
