Staying Safe Near Lake Overholser: What to Do After a Hit-and-Run
Sunday afternoon outings should be about enjoying the fresh air, not surviving a crisis. Tragically, a quiet ride near Lake Overholser turned devastating on June 7 when a bicyclist was struck by a vehicle around 5 p.m. Even more alarming, the driver fled the scene without stopping. While authorities search for the vehicle, the Oklahoma City community is left wishing the injured cyclist a swift recovery and wondering how to find justice in the face of hit-and-run negligence.
Hit-and-run accidents leave victims facing an incredibly unfair double burden: severe physical trauma and deep financial uncertainty. When a driver flees, it can feel like you have nowhere to turn.
