Pedestrian Accident Statistics
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s online Traffic Safety Facts of 2006, a pedestrian is injured approximately every 9 minutes in a traffic crash, and every 110 minutes a pedestrian is killed. Although steps have been taken to help ensure pedestrian safety, reckless and careless drivers, drunk drivers, and distracted or tired motorists will still cause accidents that injure innocent pedestrians.
Pedestrians, just like motorists, have the responsibility to be cautious and obey traffic laws – and this must be proven in a personal injury claim involving a California pedestrian accident. In addition, your lawyer must prove that your injuries were a result of the accident and that the other motorist’s activities led to the accident.
Only a skilled personal injury lawyer will be able to protect your rights and help you bring a pedestrian accident claim to civil court, where you may be able to receive payment for damages you suffered.
