A couple years ago I was one of the first people on the scene of an accident on #bchwy4 where a large cargo truck ran into a semi truck trailer. The driver of the cargo truck was hurt and had to be attended to by EMT. The semi trailer never stopped and left the scene, it passed me just a few hundred metres from where the accident happened before I got there.
A few days later I got a call from ICBC asking if I could provide any information. I sent a detailed description of where I saw the semi trailer, what state it was in, etc.
A few weeks later I got a random phone call from ICBC thanking me for the report and indicating that it had a major impact. I suspect that it proved that the person who was hurt was not responsible... or it proved the identity of the truck that left the scene.
All to say... if you see something that the authorities might be interested in, report it! You never know who you might help.
