The pedestrian died at the scene. The Greenville County Coroner’s Office has identified the person, but the name will be released after the family has been notified.
The crash remains under investigation by the coroner’s office and the South Carolina Highway Patrol.

Insurance coverage can play an important role after a fatal pedestrian crash in Greenville, SC.
Depending on the circumstances, available coverage may include the insurance carried by a vehicle involved in the crash, as well as uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage that could become relevant when a driver leaves the scene or does not have enough insurance.
When a driver involved in a fatal crash remains unidentified, determining what insurance coverage may apply can be more complicated. The known vehicle's policy may need to be reviewed, while the circumstances of the hit-and-run can also affect whether other available coverage could apply to the losses suffered by eligible family members.
Along with identifying potentially applicable policies, families may need documentation showing the financial losses connected to the death. Medical bills, funeral expenses, employment records, income statements, and other financial documents can help establish the costs and losses that may be considered in an insurance claim or wrongful death case.
As insurance information is gathered, policy limits and coverage terms may also need to be reviewed. A policy may provide coverage for certain losses while placing limits on the amount available, making it important to examine the specific terms of any policies connected to the crash.
With these details collected, a wrongful death lawyer can review the available insurance information and explain how coverage may apply. An attorney may also communicate with insurance companies, organize supporting documentation, and help determine whether additional sources of coverage should be evaluated.
