    Might make it easier for cops if you leave a few body parts stuck to the front, sides or roof of the offending vehicle.

    NO, it's not me!  On the local news there was yet another report of such an accident, and the police asked the public's help in case anyone has information.

    Doesn't matter unless there's a witness and/or a homicide or serious injury. (I've been down this road before.) Without eyewitness testimony to put the driver behind the wheel when the H&R occurred it's all circumstantial and here-say. With a homicide they'll look a bit harder for evidence but we're still back to needing that witness, or witnesses. Less than and it that it boils down to a problem for the insurance carriers.

    In these days of dashcams and universal surveillance, it's not hard at all. Unless you're on a country road with nobody else around.

    I would NEVER leave the scene of an accident.  There are phone cams everywhere and there are traffic cams everywhere.  There are too many eyes with proof even if you don't have a conscience. I  have a conscience and I am a big chicken so I won't be charged with this ever.

    Like the way you threw in that "I have a conscience" thing at the end.   ;-)
