Criminal Defense for Hit and Run Charges in Florida

Leaving the scene of an auto accident is a serious criminal offense. Even if you did not cause the accident, you may still face criminal charges for leaving without exchanging driver and insurance information with the other party or parties involved. This offense is commonly referred to as "hit and run" or "leaving the scene." Florida law is particularly harsh on hit and run offenses, and a conviction of this kind may result in imprisonment in state prison, fines, driver's license suspension and other serious criminal penalties.

Orlando Hit and Run Offenses

A driver who is involved in an auto accident causing injury to another person must stop immediately at the scene of the accident and remain there until he or she has: exchanged driver, insurance and contact information with the other party and rendered medical assistance (such as calling an ambulance) if necessary. Willfully leaving the scene of an auto accident causing injury is a third degree felony, punishable by up to 5 years in state prison. Enhanced penalties and more serious charges may apply if the other party loses their life.
