Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents can happen anywhere—at crosswalks, intersections, parking lots, or sidewalks. Some of the most common causes include:

  • Distracted driving – Drivers texting or not paying attention to the road
  • Failure to yield – Ignoring crosswalks or stop signs
  • Speeding – Reducing reaction time and increasing impact severity
  • Drunk or impaired driving – Making reckless and dangerous decisions
  • Poor visibility – Accidents at night or in bad weather conditions

When a driver’s negligence causes a pedestrian injury, victims have the right to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and more.

Steps to Take After a Pedestrian Accident

If you’ve been hit by a vehicle, follow these steps to protect yourself:

  1. Seek Medical Attention Immediately – Even minor injuries can worsen over time.
  2. Call the Police – A report will document the accident and help your case.
  3. Gather Evidence – Take photos, get witness statements, and note vehicle details.
  4. Avoid Speaking to Insurance Companies Alone – They may offer low settlements. Speak to an attorney first.
