Hit and Run Crash Leaves Man in Coma

Hit and Run Crash Leaves Man in Coma

In Silver Lake, a hit-and-run crash involving two individuals on a scooter and a man in a BMW left one of the scooter-riders in a coma. The crash happened around 9 p.m. on Tuesday, September 4th, 2018 on Glendale Blvd and Waverly Dr. The driver of the BMW approached the intersection but did not see the scooter; the riders did not have any lights on the vehicle, and the BMW hit the rear of it. A video that was released shows the BMW pushing the scooter around a corner before the driver backed up and sped off. Eyewitnesses state that as the scooter was hit, the two riders were thrown from the scooter and left there. One of the victims, a mid-30s man, was immediately rushed to the hospital; he lapsed into a coma. The other rider suffered minor damages but was released the same night. Neither individual wore a helmet. The driver of the BMW or the female passenger inside of it are both sought, and there is a reward for anyone who has information that can lead to the apprehension of the suspect.

However, you may be able to pursue restitution from your own insurance company if you have a policy for underinsured or uninsured motorists. In these situations, an individual who hits you may not be able to pay for all of the damages, or he may not have any insurance coverage at all. Your insurance company could thus pay out the damages that resulted from the accident. Unfortunately, many insurance companies will try to avoid paying out such claims. They will do all they can to not lose profits, even if that means refusing settlements to their very own customers. Our attorneys can see to it that you are properly represented if you pursue such compensation after a hit-and-run crash.
