Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

These accidents can occur on a sidewalk, parking lot, crosswalk, middle of the block, intersection or driveway. When a walker, jogger, wheelchair occupant, infant in a stroller or skateboarder is struck by a motor vehicle, the result is typically devastating injury whether the vehicle is a car, delivery truck, motorcycle, large truck, SUV or other type of motor vehicle.

Some of the most common factors involve the following:

  • Cell phone distractions
  • Speeding near intersections, parking lots, school zone or other high pedestrian traffic areas
  • Running through stop signs or red lights without verifying it is safe
  • DUI involving alcohol or drugs
  • Backing out of driveways without checking behind the vehicle
  • Other forms of driving distractions

Children and seniors are especially vulnerable to pedestrian accidents caused by these types of negligent driving. Studies have shown that children may lack the ability and experience to accurately judge distance and speed based on physical observation. This lack of cognitive maturity combined with a shortage of experience with the danger posed by motor vehicles can result in children running into the street to retrieve a ball or wayward pet.

Pursue Compensation with a Lexington Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Insurance attorneys often attempt to shift blame to the pedestrian in these types of accidents by claiming that the pedestrian "darted" into the street or crossed where it was unsafe. The experienced Lexington pedestrian accident attorneys at Goeing Goeing & McQuinn PLLC have the experience to successfully counter such defenses while seeking all potential avenues of compensation in your case.
