Identifying These Car Parts Could Help Catch A Lethal Hit-And-Run Driver


On Monday, June 13th motorcyclist Damian Taylor was knocked off his 1982 Suzuki by an unidentified car, succumbing to blunt force trauma injuries and passing away shortly after. Police are currently seeking help tracking down the driver involved.

WYFFsays Taylor was 37 years old, and unfortunately not wearing a helmet when the crash took place. That was obviously a poor decision on his part, but does not excuse the driver who hit him and left him from responsibility.

The crash is said to have taken place at around 6:20 a.m. Monday, on I-85 in South Carolina’s Greenville County at mile marker 48. So far reports suggest the car involved was a small white sedan, some calling it “either a Toyota Camry or Honda Civic.”

A Jalopnik reader who works at a local Toyota shop told me that police brought these parts in in the hopes of identifying the car. Take a look, and let us know what you think:





If you have any information that could help identify and/or locate the vehicle, you can reach out to the South Carolina Highway Patrol’s Greenville office at 864-241-1000. Additionally, the Iron Horse motorcycle law firm is offering a $2,500 reward “for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the driver who fled the scene” of the hit-and-run incident. They can be reached at 855-476-6529.
