Driver Involved in Two Accidents Within Minutes | Shapiro, Washburn & Sharp

The same Ford Escort was involved in two accidents within minutes on the same day on, first, U.S. 29 and, second, VA 151 in Amherst County, Virginia (VA). According to the Nelson County Times, the at-fault driver sideswiped the first car then took off. The hit-and-run driver later crossed over the center line on VA 151 and hit a Ford Taurus head-on. Both accidents occurred within a 7 mile radius.

These Virginia accidents exemplify the kind of reckless and wanton behavior every driver should avoid. If you get involved in an accident, do not flee the scene. It is both illegal and deplorable. To make matters worse, the driver continued his thoughtless travels and slammed head-on into another vehicle.
