If there is a large part of the mirror assembly with any numbers embossed, a Google search of those numbers may get L.E. a make and even model.
I would wager they know this, given their past determination of vehicle make, model, and approximate year from parts at hit and run collisions…
Hope the biker is ok. Dangerous to ride the highway in the dark. Not sure exact location, but lots of curves and narrow shoulders.
That’s a very open stretch of road leading to the grade climb.
The 101 is so popular with cyclists, yet too many places have what can barely be called a shoulder for bicycles.
Somehow a bike path away from the road needs to be built.
It’s amazing that more cyclists aren’t injured.
Because it’s too much to ask people to be careful when they get behind the steering wheel of an automobile?
It was still a hit and run.
I think it’s funny how every commenter is an investigator with all these unreal methods of tracking down criminals. If you know so much join the force you know it all.
And you know? Nothing…….. You just came on here and made an even more pointless comment, great job brain surgeon!
Any road is only as dangerous as the drivers on that road choose to make it.
Just texting along and all of the sudden”BAM!”
What kind of sad excuse hits and runs? PLEASE just slow the
f^%$ down people.
Does anyone know of the road IChie Pitpeci in Orleans, Ca. That is like driving on a sidewalk. I used to take Kenny Dowd out that way to visit his mom. Sorry I know I misspelled the road. Can be scary.
