Hit and Run


Medical slang A flippant term for performing an operation quickly so as not to be late for another engagement
Public safety An RTA/MVA in which the driver—often intoxicated at the time of the accident—strikes a pedestrian, bicyclist or other vehicle, and leaves the scene of the accident, often without informing authorities or emergency services; abandoning a scene is a criminal act that implies a lack of concern for the victim’s safety and welfare and thus carries severe penalties

hit and run


hit and run

n. the crime of a driver of a vehicle who is involved in a collision with another vehicle, property or human being, who knowingly fails to stop to give his/her name, license number, and other information as required by statute to the injured party, a witness, or law enforcement officers. If there is only property damage and no other person is present, leaving the information attached to the damaged property may be sufficient, provided the person causing the accident makes a report to the police. Hit and run statutes vary from state to state. It is not a violation of the constitutional protection against self-incrimination to be required to stop and give this information since it is a report and not an admission of guilt. Some hit and run cases are difficult to determine, such as the driver leaves the accident scene to go a block to his/her house or the neighborhood repair garage, and then walks back to the scene.
