jury or property dainage i in an accident caused by a hit and run

driver?

Formerly under common law, no remedy would exist since there
would bé no one ascertainable against whom a lawsuit could be

-. commenced. Fortunately in British Columbia chat is no longer the
case. if injucy, death or property damage is caused in British Col-
umbia by a hit and run driver, the victim has a suit directly against
1.C.B.C. for all personal injuries, and property damage which ex-
ceeds $150.00. There are, however, certain conditions which must
be satisfied before such a suit can be successful:

4. Written notice must be given to I.C.B.C. within six months

after the hie and run accidence.

2. The victim must make all reasonable efforts to ascertain and
identify the owner and driver of the hit and run vehicle.

3. In a case of vehicle damage, the owner of the vehicle should
have reported the loss to the police within 48 hours of the
discovery of damage.

There are certain monetary limits to these actions (at the time
of this writing $206,000.00) but subject to that, and observance -
with the above conditions, a suit against I.C.B.C. for damages caus-
ed by a hit and run driver should be no more complicated, nor
should the victim’s award be any less, than if the identity of the
chird party driver were known,
