A resolution that would have required the Virginia Department of Transportation to compile a list of autobody repair shops to make it easier to investigate hit-and-run crashes died on Monday, January 30, 2023.

A subcommittee of the House Rules Committee killed a resolution proposed by Delegate Candi Mundon King (D-Woodbridge, Stafford) resolution called the STARR Alert, which aims to notify auto repair shops of hit-and-run crashes, prompting the owners to be on the lookout for drivers that fled the scene of crashes might seek vehicle repairs.

In August 2022, 25-year-old Alexis Hicks was struck outside a Norfolk hospital and later succumbed to her injuries. The driver fled the scene, and the case remains unsolved.
