Commentary
If the allegations against this driver are true, then it's at least progress that a runaway driver is being held accountable. However, it's important investigations continue into why the driver left the scene. In my experience, details often show there was something specific they wanted to hide from authorities. Drunk driving, for example, can be a common reason drivers flee the scene. Simply put, people rightfully want to see accountability after hit-and-run accidents. That should include any mistakes that may have contributed to the accident itself. Are authorities here looking into that?
