How Do Pedestrian Accidents Happen?

Pedestrian accidents often occur due to the negligence or reckless behavior of drivers. Common causes include:

  • Distracted driving: Careless or reckless behavior, such as using a phone or engaging in other distractions, can cause drivers to overlook pedestrians.
  • Inadequate lighting: Poorly lit streets make it difficult for drivers to see pedestrians, especially at night, increasing the risk of accidents.
  • Excessive speed: Speeding drivers often do not have enough time to react when a pedestrian crosses their path, leading to serious collisions.
  • Improper backing up: Accidents can occur when drivers fail to check their surroundings while reversing, putting pedestrians at risk.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a pedestrian accident, an attorney from Law Offices of Sharon L. Azoulay, P.A., can help you seek the compensation you deserve.

Types Of Injuries From Being Hit By A Car

When a pedestrian is struck by a vehicle, the injuries can be severe and life-altering. Injuries may include:

  • Broken bones: Particularly in the arms and legs, these injuries are common as pedestrians instinctively brace for impact.
  • Head and brain injuries: These can lead to long-term cognitive challenges and require immediate medical care.
  • Spinal cord injuries: Damage can result in paralysis or loss of sensation, drastically changing a victim’s life.
  • Severe scarring: Lacerations and abrasions can affect both physical appearance and emotional well-being.
  • Internal injuries: Damage to organs can be life-threatening and necessitate urgent medical attention.

An experienced personal injury lawyer at Law Offices of Sharon L. Azoulay, P.A., can assist you in pursuing the compensation you need for your recovery and future needs.
