구호조치의뢰후 사고운전자의 현장이탈과 도주운전죄

Comments on the Case about Fleeing after a Traffic Accident

  The case above says that if the person who commits a traffic accident leaves the accident area before the police arrives there, he should be charged with the neglect of traffic accident victim. However, after the defendant commits the traffic accident, stops the vehicle, gives the victim"s company his namecard to identify himself, and then asks the taxi driver to give a ride to the victim, he should be considered to fulfill his obligations as accident-committor, even though he is not present at the accident site at the time when the police arrives there. Therefore, the case above is far from rationale.
