Common Types of Pedestrian Accidents
-
Crosswalk Collisions
Most pedestrians in crosswalk collisions are hit by cars making left-hand turns. Drivers can be careless or distracted when turning. When crossing the street, do not rely on the lights to protect you. Always be aware and make sure it’s safe before crossing.
-
Parking Lot Accidents
When walking through parking lots, you should always be on alert. Drivers backing out of parking spaces may not see a pedestrian walking by which can lead to a collision. It is especially important to keep children close.
-
Hit-and-Run
Hit-and-runs are complex, so it is necessary to have an experienced lawyer walk you through your options. These occur when a driver collides with a pedestrian, then drives away from the scene out of fear.
