Pedestrian Accidents

The law requires that drivers remain aware of pedestrians and yield for the appropriate right of way. Unfortunately, many drivers ignore pedestrians’ rights, and pedestrian accidents can occur as a result. If you have been hit by a car, you may be able to seek damages for medical care, loss of income, and other damages.

Common causes of pedestrian accidents include drivers:

  • Running a red light or stop sign
  • Distracted driving, such as texting while driving
  • Making a right turn against a red light without looking for pedestrians
  • Making a left turn without looking for pedestrians
  • Drunk driving
  • Failing to yield right-of-way at marked crosswalks

Often, insurance companies that cover negligent drivers in these accidents will try to blame the victims.
