Default Hit and Run

Hey someone just ran off.. not a word.. and Im trying to figure out who it was..


I called the cops and nothing happened.. they said there were no witnesses and that they couldnt do anything about it even though I had the plate numbers




If someone could run the plates that would be super.. Its a green Infinity and it looked like someone that had just borrowed a car from a dealership.. or just bought it..

its a used car.. Im pissed

thanks

Did you call this into HPD? I am surprised at the response you got, and would definitely call again. That response makes no sense, it would be fairly easy to put a bolo out for green infinity with those tags, wanted for suspected hit and run. Pull them over and look for damage and paint transfer.

Tags show the car as a Hyundai, you sure it was an Infinity? Either the plates are stolen or you got the tags wrong.

Well, if it was a stolen car and they had switched the plates, it would make sense why they wouldn't stop.

Just means they have new or never put on the new plates. If this is the case what happens is the old plates basically get removed from the vehicle registration data base. The old plate #'s last only for a few weeks or days once the new plates are issued. Once out of the data system you really can't do anything to find the vehicle without the vin #. Thats why the officer wasn't able to retrieve any information.
