A hit-and-run accident occurs when a driver flees the scene of an accident.
In Connecticut, when an accident occurs, the driver of each car must stop and exchange insurance and other relevant information with the other driver or with the owner of the property that was damaged in the accident.
It is a crime for a driver to leave the scene of an accident.
Despite these laws and the severe penalties they carry, hit-and-run accidents continue to be very common.
Many hit-and-run drivers are often identified after the fact, typically through an eyewitness by way of the license plate number; paint scrapings or car parts may be left behind; and occasionally, the drivers themselves turn themselves in to the authorities.

Cell phone use while driving is one of the biggest driver distractions on the road today, especially by younger drivers.

Accidents caused by a driver distracted by cell phone use may not be easily determined at the time of the crash.
Evidence such as cell phone records must be investigated to help determine if cell phone use was a factor in the accident.

Most motorists drive within the rules of the law, which includes carrying automobile insurance in the event of an accident.
Unfortunately, some drivers often fail to carry auto insurance, placing others at risk of being uncompensated for injuries and other losses caused by an accident.
When this occurs, Connecticut law recognizes the rights of accident victims by allowing them to bring a claim against their own auto insurance company for injuries, medical expenses and other losses incurred as the result of such an accident.

The bicycle is and always has been a popular form of transportation in the United States.
For young children to adults, cycling provides freedom, exercise, and provides wonderful recreational opportunities.
However, even in bicycle-friendly communities with bicycle paths, cyclists still must frequently share the roadways with cars, trucks, and buses.
As a result, vehicle accidents involving cyclists are very common.
A large number of these accidents occur at intersections.
Many of them come about as a result of motorists who seem to forget that cyclists are also legitimate and lawful users of the roads, and fail to look for cyclists when making turns or proceeding through intersections.

In Connecticut, the cold winter weather brings ice and snow accumulations, which cause slippery conditions on our walkways.
Sidewalks, driveways, and parking lots can all become extremely dangerous during wintry weather, and all property owners are responsible for making sure those dangerous conditions are minimized by keeping their properties free from snow and ice buildup after a storm.
Under Connecticut laws, property owners have a reasonable amount of time to clear snow and apply sand or salt as necessary after a storm.
