A victim, who was in his 20s, died after being hit by a car on Oilmills Road, between Pondersbridge and Ramsey Mereside, in Cambridgeshire, at about 23:00 BST on Saturday.
Marcin Pilarski, 33, of West Street, Chatteris, has been charged with causing death by careless driving while unfit through alcohol, failing to stop at the scene of a collision, and driving with no licence or insurance.
He appeared before magistrates in Peterborough on Monday. A date for his next court appearance has not yet been set.
