Pedestrian accidents affect nearly 80,000 Americans each year - and they can occur anytime, anywhere. Pedestrian accidents aren't just common; they can be deadly. In fact, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NTHSA) estimates that up to 5,000 deaths occur each year due to a pedestrian being struck by a moving vehicle. And vehicles aren't the only danger to pedestrians - improperly maintained roadways and private premises present additional dangers to those who take to the streets.
What causes a Jacksonville pedestrian accident? It varies. By far the most common cause is vehicles who run over pedestrians due to impeded vision, slow reaction times, or simple driver error. In addition, debris in the road, cracks or poorly maintained concrete, and slip and fall risks can cause additional accidents. A pedestrian accident can lead to lacerations, bruises, broken bones or more serious injuries like traumatic brain injury, paralysis, and even death. Extensive medical treatment can be required, draining the victim's pocketbook and preventing them from engaging in normal life activities. In addition, you could require psychological treatment for the pain, suffering and trauma a pedestrian accident can inflict.
Luckily, there is recourse for injured pedestrians. A personal injury lawsuit may be filed that claims negligence and damages related to the costs of treatment, lost wages, and future care. Depending on the case, there may be a number of parties who share the blame. Usually, an extensive investigation by a Florida personal injury attorney can uncover all responsible parties and reconstruct the circumstances of the accident in a way calculated to prove negligence and establish the plaintiff's personal injury case in court.
