Pedestrian accidents are most likely to occur between the hours of 3:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m., since this is the typical time that children are getting off buses to go home from school or are out playing with their friends.
Today, drivers face many more distractions than they used to, which can take their focus off the road. It no longer seems safe to walk on sidewalks or crosswalks.
Fortunately, for these pedestrian accidents that occur, you are entitled to recover financial compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and funeral costs (if applicable).
Most pedestrian accidents occur because the driver was speeding, driving recklessly, failing to obey traffic laws, or lost control of their vehicle. Drivers are responsible for driving with reasonable care to avoid pedestrian accidents.
There are many misinterpretations of the pedestrian law. For instance, if a pedestrian fails to obey traffic rules and crosses the street on a green light, they risk being struck by a vehicle.
Although the pedestrian was violating the law, the driver still may be at fault for the pedestrian accident. Courts consider many factors in cases of pedestrian accidents. As lawyers, we can assist you with your case to get the compensation that you deserve. Also, family members can collect compensation for extreme fatalities causing a wrongful death. We have a qualified, experienced team of lawyers to handle your claim to get the compensation you are entitled to.
There are laws in place to protect pedestrians, but sometimes they are not followed properly. If someone has injured you in a pedestrian accident, you must contact a pedestrian accident lawyer to ensure your legal rights are protected.
