However things ultimately played out here, I wonder if authorities looked into why the driver left the scene. A lot of the time, there is something specific the driver doesn’t want authorities to find out about. It could have been anything from warrants to drunk driving, and finding out for sure sometimes shows there needs to be more consequences than just for leaving the scene.
