Our recent blog post discussed the horrors of a pedestrian versus vehicle accident. The impacts of these accidents can easily be harrowing. Not only do pedestrian accidents impact the pedestrian, they also impact the family members who interact with the pedestrian on a regular basis. While we fully understand that seeking compensation doesn\u2019t take away the effects, it can help you to reduce the financial stress that you face because of the accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One thing that you have to remember is that drivers have specific duties to keep from hitting pedestrians. Unfortunately, we live in a society that sometimes opts to place the focus on hurrying instead of safety. Drivers aren\u2019t willing to stop for a minute so a pedestrian who has the right-of-way can cross in the crosswalk. Instead, these drivers might try to rush through the crosswalk. This can lead to the pedestrian being struck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
