Pedestrian

Pedestrian accidents are among the most catastrophic traffic incidents, as individuals on foot have no protection against the force of a vehicle collision. These vulnerable road users face life-threatening injuries and fatalities at alarming rates, especially in urban areas with heavy traffic, poorly marked crosswalks, and distracted or aggressive drivers.

Common causes of pedestrian accidents include drivers failing to yield at crosswalks, distracted driving while texting or using devices, speeding through residential areas and school zones, driving under the influence, and poor visibility conditions at night. Pedestrians may also be struck in parking lots, driveways, and intersections where driver negligence creates dangerous situations.

Injuries from pedestrian accidents are often severe and include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, multiple fractures, internal organ damage, and long-term disabilities requiring extensive medical care and rehabilitation. The physical, emotional, and financial toll on victims and their families can be overwhelming and life-altering.
