Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

In the vast majority of pedestrian accidents, driver negligence is to blame. Too often drivers are distracted by cell phones, adjusting music, eating, grooming, or other passengers. When a driver loses focus, even for a fraction of a second, it can have life-changing consequences for pedestrians - both adults and children alike. Some of the most common causes of driver negligence involve:

  • Failure to stop at a stop sign, crosswalk, or red light
  • Not recognizing or respecting the pedestrian’s right of way
  • Speeding in high pedestrian density areas, such as residential neighborhoods and urban centers
  • Being under the influence of alcohol or drugs

During your consultation, our attorneys will discuss the circumstances of your accident, and working with you, we can use our thorough knowledge of the field to determine if you have cause for a personal injury or wrongful death claim.

Life-Altering Effects

Because a pedestrian has no protection when they are hit by a vehicle, they are vulnerable to life-threatening injuries, including:

Due to their reduced mobility, the elderly and children are especially vulnerable. Resulting injuries often require months, if not years, of treatment and physical therapy. These painful injuries can undermine a victim’s financial well-being as medical bills escalate. As part of their recovery, a victim may also need to take time off from work, resulting in lost wages and further economic burden.
