This article — Hit and Run Legal Help in Israel — tells you what you need to do if you are in a hit and run in Israel. All issues related to Israeli transportation law fall under the auspices of the <\/span>Ministry of Transport and Road Safety<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m in a Hit and Run – What Do I Do?<\/b><\/h4>\n

First, call an ambulance (call 101 on your phone), or seek medical assistance if you need it.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Hit<\/p>\n

Second, make sure you document what happened, using footage from security cameras, pedestrian cameras, or other car cameras in the area.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Third, write down everything you can about the vehicle that hit you: license number, color, type of car, or anything else that you can recall.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fourth, list witnesses to the incident, asking for their names and phone numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fifth, go to a police station in person and file a complaint as soon as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Israeli Law on Hit and Runs<\/b><\/h4>\n

You can only file a claim against someone in Israel if 1) they do not escape, 2) you can find them, or 3) the person who hit you has <\/span>bituach chova<\/span><\/i> (obligatory insurance). However, in the case of a hit and run, there is a special fund called Karnit<\/a>, which acts as a replacement for the insurance company. The Karnit fund will only pay you compensation if they establish that you were, indeed, in a hit and run. They want to make sure that you do not know the person or that you are trying to protect someone by not revealing who they are.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Legal Representation for Hit and Runs<\/b><\/h4>\n

We recommend that you get a lawyer to assist you with a hit and run as soon as possible. They can help move your claim along, also preparing you for any meetings you might have with a Karnit investigator. If you need help choosing a lawyer, we lay out some important things to consider here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
