Tyler, Texas sees dramatic rise in hit-and-run car accidents

Hit-and-run accidents leave the victim both stunned and angry. When you are the innocent victim of a car accident, you want the other driver to have to face the consequences of their negligence. In particular, you want compensation for your injuries and for the damage to your vehicle. 

Unfortunately for residents of Tyler, Texas, hit-and-run car accidents are on the rise in their city. In fact, they’ve been on the rise since 2004, a year that saw just over 600 hit-and-run accidents. The year 2008 saw more than 800, and since the beginning of June this year alone, police have worked 336 hit-and-run car accidents in Tyler, Texas.

Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime under Texas law. If the victim of the car accident has suffered a serious injury, the deserter could face third-degree felony charges. Even for non-serious injuries a driver who leaves the scene of an accident can be charged with a felony. Various classes of misdemeanor charges apply to property damage, depending on the extent.
