Auto vs. Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrian Accident Attorneys In Your Corner
Walking is the oldest, most basic form of transportation around. Just about everyone has to walk at sometime or another. In fact, the number of people walking in the United States is increasing every year. Sadly, the number of pedestrian traffic injuries is also increasing. According to a recent study, five percent of pedestrian v. auto injuries in California are fatal. 98.6% of pedestrian injuries in traffic crashes occur in urban settings. Pedestrian accidents are most likely to occur between 6AM and 9AM on weekdays. The highest pedestrian fatality rates in 2007-2013 were in Kern County (#1) and Humboldt County (#2). Los Angeles had the highest total number of pedestrian fatalities at 1,382.
Common injuries include:
- Fractures
- Brain injury
- Road rash
- Whiplash
- Lost teeth
