I have to wonder if authorities have taken additional steps to gather evidence about the reported runaway driver here. Even late at night, this is a busy highway, and there may have even been traffic cameras or cameras from nearby businesses or residences that could help reveal details about the suspect hit-and-run driver. The more information in the public eye, the better the chance investigators can identify the driver and see they’re held accountable for their actions.
