Pedestrians are often required to share the roadway with motor vehicles, for example, when crossing the street. Unlike automobile and truck drivers, however, pedestrians have little or no protection in the event of a collision. For this reason, auto-pedestrian accidents often result in very serious injuries and even death.

In auto-pedestrian accidents, the specific location of the accident can often be critical in determining fault. Pedestrians have the same rights as anyone else hurt in an accident - they are entitled to recover for their damages from the person who caused the accident, or from that person’s insurance company. Because the determination of liability can become very complicated in these types of accidents, it is important to contact an attorney if you have been injured in such an accident.
