HIT AND RAN CAR ACCIDENT LAWYERS INJURY INSURANCE CLAIM
A woman was cited after a hit-and-run accident, according to a news article today. The accident injured her and her passenger early Friday morning. Our car accident lawyers frequently deal with hit and run cases.
According to the Austin Minnesota Police Chief, the police received a call early Friday morning about a motor vehicle striking a tree in the 700 block of First Drive Northwest. Officers found a 2003 Audi A4 Quattro with heavy front-end damage and deployed airbags at the scene. They also observed a 1997 Mazda Portage legally parked several yards away that appeared to have been sideswiped.
Police searched for the driver who caused the crash. There were initially unsuccessful because she had run from the car, according to the chief. However, at about 3:30 a.m., an officer was at the Mayo Clinic Health System emergency room when he learned that two women were being treated for contusions and scrapes.
The officer asked one of the women if she would speak to him, and she agreed. The suspected intoxicated woman admitted she was driving. However, she passed a preliminary breath test. Therefore, she was cited for reckless driving. Also, failure to provide traffic accident information, and having no Minnesota driver’s license. In other words, she got away with drunk driving, but not the hit and run.
