Adult fiction about a child getting hit by a car told from multiple perspectives

[Angela]

I read this book maybe 15 years ago. It told the story of all these people in a neighborhood leading up to the moment when a kid gets hit by a car. It was about how all these lives were connected by this one event.

Angela, this suggestion appears to be a YA novel but I'll mention it just in case - Remembering Raquel by Vivian Vande Velde?

What is the story's time period and location (country, region, well-known city, small town)?
