But what leads to these automobile-pedestrian collisions?
Common reasons include drivers:
- Using cell phones while driving.
- Ignoring traffic signals or stop signs.
- Exceeding speed limits.
- Driving under fatigue.
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
According to California state law, pedestrians usually have the right-of-way. Specifically, the California Vehicle Code 21950(a) mandates drivers to yield to pedestrians in marked crosswalks and at intersections. These accidents can cause severe injuries, ranging from bone fractures and disfigurement to death. Even if the at-fault driver lacks insurance, the injured might be eligible for compensation through their insurance coverage.
After such an incident, why should one promptly consult with legal representation?
Navigating the aftermath of a pedestrian accident requires expertise. Identifying the responsible parties, understanding the nuances of negligence, engaging with insurance companies, and quick claims presentation are crucial steps. All these steps need the expertise of a seasoned personal injury attorney. DFG LAW, APC has successfully represented numerous clients in similar scenarios.
