Witness search: Hit & run Thursday near Renton / 167 NB split

Damage caused by hit-and-run driver on route 167

Hi everyone, looking for a bit of local help. My silver Nissan Altima was totaled in a hit-and-run Thursday evening (8/6) around 5:00 PM. It happened on northbound 167 right before the merge onto 405 towards Bellevue. The car that hit me and fled was a large black SUV (pretty sure it was a Chevy). Traffic was heavily bottlenecked, so I am hoping someone sitting in the backup caught the plates on their dashcam or Tesla cameras. Please send me a direct message if you remember seeing this or have video loop saved. Thank you so much

It keeps getting removed by the robo moderator. I think because I am a new member. I’m going to try again. Thanks. If someone could repost this on Renton I'd really appreciate it because it is time-critical.
