Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

When drivers are under the influence of drugs or alcohol, the risk of hitting a pedestrian is considerably increased. Pedestrian accidents can result in wrongful death and can cause some of the most devastating types of personal injury, including severe head injuries and spinal cord injuries, in addition to the emotional distress incurred by victims.

Victims of Pedestrian Accidents Should Seek Legal Representation

Drivers are responsible for being aware of their surroundings, obeying road signs and speed limits, and avoiding the use of drugs and alcohol while operating a vehicle. Many drivers do not follow these rules and regulations. What can result is the serious injury or death of an innocent pedestrian.
