A teenager is recovering from injuries he sustained in a hit-and-run accident in Virginia Beach, VA. He was on his bicycle on Halifax Avenue near the intersection with Heathrow Drive when he was struck by a car. The driver of the car did not remain on scene, and police continue searching for the person who caused the crash.
The Virginia Personal Injury Lawyers’ Perspective
Fortunately, the teenage victim suffered only minor injuries. We hope he makes a full recovery.
As experienced personal injury attorneys in Virginia, it is unthinkable to us that someone could hit a bicyclist, then leave the scene of the accident. It is not known at this time of the driver of the car was engaging in any type of reckless behavior that caused the collision, but the running away raises suspicions.
