Commentary:
Hit-and-run accidents can be horrifying affairs, but they are generally committed by two groups of individuals: Those in fear, and those hiding something. The fearful types tend to be gripped by panic after a serious accident, and instinctively hammer on the gas, but these people generally return to the scene moments later to take responsibility. On the other hand, the people hiding something tend to be doing just that; hiding something. This generally has nothing to do with the victim in particular, but avoiding contact with law enforcement becomes more important to these people than the welfare of their victim.
