The only safety net for drivers can be if they have fully comprehensive insurance, and even then they will find their premiums substantially increased the following year.
According to figures from the national road safety authority, this new tendency started taking hold a few years ago. But was only in 2018 that incidents topped the 1000-mark.
Say reports, in 2018 authorities started registering an average of three hit-and-runs per day.
In the first four months of this year, there have already been 336.
Said a police source, many of these incidents are “motivated by alcohol and the lack of valid insurance”.

Soon be third country behaviour for Britain, when EU will have successfully completed it's task of disposing of Britain and getting on with business building a bigger and more powerful European Union.
Britain has long been known as a puppet for the USA, and it is widely recognised, the USA do not want the EU to become more powerful.
The puppet Britain, has used their vote in the European Parliament to stop much progress, but thankfully this will soon be coming to an end in October or maybe before this if bojo gets in to the aptly named downing street.
