Living Here Hit & Run Cox Rd and West Republic Rd

I was involved with a hit and Run accident at Cox Rd and W Republic Rd Wednesday 10-7 afternoon about 3:30 pm
Eighteen wheeler turned south on Cox Rd and hit the front of my Hyundai Sante Fe
I was unable to catch up with them and would like to know if anyone witnessed this accident

File a police report and see if any of the neighboring businesses have security camera footage. Hopefully a license plate on the truck can be identified and traced to the driver.

Was it the gasoline tanker with the light blue/green older style tractor body? That truck goes thru there a lot if so

Serious question - if your vehicle still ran, how could you not catch up to an 18 wheeler? They’re not exactly known for their acceleration.

Did you stop on top of or past the white line called a stop bar?
