Case Filed After Truck Occupants Flee Scene of Crash

Led by attorney Noah Wexler, Arnold & Itkin is representing a pair of friends who were negligently hit by a large commercial vehicle while driving. Rather than take responsibility for the collision, the driver and passenger of the commercial truck drove off, waving our clients away as they tried to get them to stop.

Leaving the scene of a crash is a decision to abandon the people you just hurt rather than face the consequences of your own negligence. A hit-and-run is not just a moral failure either; it is also a serious crime, one that can even be a felony if crash victims are seriously injured. Our clients were left to deal with the aftermath of the collision entirely on their own, without so much as an acknowledgment from the people responsible. The truck driver and passenger made a terrible situation even worse.

Truck companies have a responsibility to employ drivers who take public safety seriously, and that responsibility does not end the moment a crash happens. Arnold & Itkin refuses to let large commercial vehicle companies employ drivers who not only disregard public safety but also flee from the responsibility that follows an accident. Our motor vehicle accident attorneys are committed to pursuing full accountability on behalf of both of our clients.

This case was filed in Harris County, Texas.
