Capt.
Skipworth says: "It is better to stay
at the scene of the accident than it is
to run."
Too
many students feel that they can flee from
an accident without repercussions, but someone
might have witnessed the accident and report
it to the police. Stay, exchange insurance
information and let the companies handle
it.
It
turns out better in the long run.
