Hit and run.
Failing to stop after an accident
Probably speeding and under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

They couldn’t find it?
Couldn’t identify it?
Driver ran away?

Driver should have stopped, or taken a step sideways to avoid

We should be thankful that of all the sleepers on the rail track that were run over, not one was injured.
