What can I do if the driver who caused the motorcycle wreck fled the scene?


If a driver leaves the scene in a hit-and-run motorcycle crash, you should take these steps:

  • Call 911 to report the incident and receive help from first responders.
  • Document your injuries and the crash site with photos and videos.
  • Get contact information from any witnesses at the scene of the hit-and-run.
  • Seek medical treatment even if you feel okay.
  • Preserve your helmet, motorcycle, and riding gear. Do not get anything washed or repaired as these are all vital evidence related to the crash.
  • Speak with a motorcycle crash attorney in Kansas City as soon as possible.

Your lawyer will help investigate the hit-and-run and try to track down the reckless driver. If the driver cannot be identified, your lawyer can discuss covering your medical bills and other crash-related expenses through your uninsured motorist (UM) coverage and other means.
