Pedestrian Accidents

There is always a certain amount of danger when you walk into a street. For some, simply going across a crosswalk can be anxiety-inducing. What if an on-coming car doesn’t see you? What if the driver ignores the red light? What if they don’t manage to stop in time? Sadly, these questions are warranted as pedestrian and vehicle collisions are all too common.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 130,000 pedestrians are injured in traffic collisions each year, with roughly one crash-related pedestrian death occurring every two hours. A pedestrian can be considered anyone who is not in a motor vehicle, such as a person on foot, on a skateboard, riding a bike, and in a wheelchair.

While the causes of pedestrian accidents are as varied as their effects, most collisions of this nature can be traced back to some form of driver negligence. If it can be proven that your crash was indeed caused by another driver’s careless actions, you may have grounds to pursue monetary compensation for a wide variety of damages, including medical bills, pain and suffering, reduced quality of life, rehabilitation expenses, lost income, and more.
