Common Causes Of Pedestrian Accidents

Most pedestrians are very aware of their surroundings and always follow the rules of crosswalks, traffic signs, and other pedestrian situations. However, you can’t control all the drivers on the road. A negligent driver can cause an accident even if you are doing everything properly. Some of the most common causes of pedestrian accidents include:

• Speeding
• Reckless driving
• Texting while driving
• Poor visibility
• Rainy conditions or wet roadways
• Failure to yield the right of way
• Driving under the influence

A pedestrian is no match for a motor vehicle, so the consequences of a pedestrian accident are usually severe. In addition to representing pedestrians, our experienced Dallas car accident lawyer is here to assist anyone who has been injured in a car accident.

At Bush & Bush Law Group, we have a deep understanding of Texas car accident laws and are committed to fighting for your rights. Whether you were hit as a pedestrian or injured in a car accident, our team will work tirelessly to secure the compensation you need for medical bills, lost wages, and other damages.

Types Of Injuries Common In Pedestrian Accidents

Even though Texas law states that pedestrians have the right-of-way at a crosswalk (Texas Transportation Code § 552.003), sometimes vehicles fail to properly yield to pedestrians. Even low-speed pedestrian accidents can result in severe injuries, and the injuries can be catastrophic if the vehicle is traveling at a high rate of speed. Some of the injuries that may be sustained in a pedestrian accident include the following:

• Broken bones
• Concussion
• Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
• Internal bleeding or organ damage
• Spinal cord injuries
• Paralysis
• Wrongful death

Some of these injuries may require years of medical treatment, and many of these injuries are life-altering. Victims who require a lifetime of medical care should never be left without the financial resources to pay for their treatments. Make sure you have an experienced pedestrian injury attorney who can properly value your case and get you the compensation you are entitled to. Reach out to us today to learn all your options.
