UPDATE: Vehicle in Pasea accident was hit from the back - driver
“Somebody hit me from the back and my vehicle swing,” said the driver of one of the vehicles. He further alleged that the taxi that hit him from behind continued driving without stopping to render assistance as required by law.
“I had on my seatbelt so I wasn’t really hurt. But when the vehicle hit me I swerve off the road,” said the man, who had been taken by ambulance to the Peebles Hospital from the scene of the accident.
“When the person hit me they drive off,” he said. The driver has requested the witholding of his name which we have.
