Negligence in Pedestrian Accidents
Motorists are the primary cause of pedestrian accidents. This is due to a lack of care on their part as they drive through areas with heavy foot traffic such as parking lots, garages, bus stops, and school zones. Examples of driver negligence include talking or texting on a cell phone while driving, driving while intoxicated, driving recklessly, or disregarding traffic signs or signals. When negligence is the cause of a pedestrian accident, the driver can be held entirely responsible for the victim's financial losses.
