How Pedestrian Accidents Happen

When the driver does not pay attention to the road carefully, the results can be very devastating, especially for pedestrians. Here are some common causes of pedestrian car accidents:
  • The driver does not pay attention or is disturbed by cellphones
  • Design flaws at the crossing location, including failure to consider upstream and downstream traffic flows
  • Motorized vehicles and bicycles do not produce pedestrian crossings
  • Turn at an intersection without looking in both directions
  • Failed to follow posted speed limit
  • Driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol
Urban areas have a much higher number of pedestrian accidents than rural areas, but many terrible accidents can occur on village roads. Winding roads with limited visibility and high speed create the perfect environment for serious accidents.

Could it be a Problem with Crosswalk?

There are times when the driver may not be the only cause of pedestrian accidents. Crossing locations and road designs can also cause pedestrian accidents. Those who design and maintain public crossings have a duty to consider pedestrian safety. If they fail to do so, and the crossing itself is not safe, then those responsible can also be held accountable. Prospective defendants in negligence on the crossing location may include but are not limited to engineering companies and government agencies. If you are injured while crossing the road, let the pedestrian accident attorney at our company help you determine who is at fault.

Pedestrians who are hit by a car can suffer serious injury

Pedestrian accidents are often catastrophic because the human body cannot withstand damage caused by collisions with vehicles. The impact of being hit with thousands of pounds of metal can cause severe injuries, including:
  • Deep wounds (lacerations) and bruises (bruises), including damage to major organs
  • Head injuries, including concussion and more severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) or coma
  • Tooth or facial injury, which may include eye injuries and vision loss
  • Spinal injuries, including paralysis or loss of other functions
  • Orthopedic injuries, including broken bones or damage to other parts of the muscular-bone system
