What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WI
I hit a pedestrian this morning. She was in the crosswalk and I was making a left turn through an intersection. I hit her with the far left (driver's side) of my car. I did not see her. I pulled over and jumped out but there were cars coming in both directions so I got back in my car to go around the block so I could get over to her (by this time there was already a woman making sure she was okay on the sidewalk. She was sitting on a short brick wall). I had to stop my car because I was shaking badly. The ambulance/fire station is right across the street so they go there quickly and were gone before I got back to the area. I called the police and let them know I did it. I am meeting with them tonight and I really need to know what I should do and how I should act. I want the girl to be taken care of fairly but I also do not want to be arrested or sued. Am I going to be arrested? Should I get a lawyer? How much should I say?
