From Jennifer Porter Law, PLLC – What if the Driver in the Bike Accident Flees the Scene or Doesn’t Have Insurance? explores what happens when the person who hit you on a bike disappears from the scene or lacks insurance. This episode dives into how cyclists in Northern Virginia—or anywhere—can protect themselves, seek justice, and recover compensation even under difficult circumstances.
In this conversation, we break down why hit‑and‑run bike accidents happen so often, what immediate steps you should take after being struck and left behind, and how to preserve evidence when the other driver is nowhere to be found. We also cover how uninsured motorist coverage can play a role, and alternative legal pathways you can pursue when the at‑fault driver has no insurance.
You’ll hear stories about how medical records, traffic camera footage, witness statements, and prompt legal action can make or break your ability to recover damages. We also discuss the challenges specific to Northern Virginia and how a dedicated personal injury attorney can help you pursue full compensation for injuries, lost wages, and other losses.
Whether you’re a bicyclist concerned about safety, someone who’s already faced a crash, or just curious about how the law protects vulnerable road users, this episode offers actionable insight and encouragement. Tune in and learn how to build a stronger case—even when the driver who hit you disappears.
