Accidents Involving Pedestrians

A pedestrian accident is where any person walking or on foot is struck by any kind of vehicle.  These accidents can happen nearly anyplace, especially considering that there are more and more cars on the road every year.  If you or someone dear to you has been injured by the negligence of a motorist when on foot, get into contact with a Tucson personal injury lawyer at Zanes Law right away. 

Drivers can be negligent, make turns or other motions in their vehicles which can result in pedestrian injury.  A great many of these accidents involve inattention or illegal actions by the drivers at fault.  They can occur anywhere foot traffic and vehicular traffic can possibly cross each other, such as parking areas, crosswalks or driveway entrances.  We stand ready to provide experienced legal consultation and representation if you or anyone you love was a victim in an accident as a pedestrian.

When someone walking is injured because of a motorist, it is commonly due to negligence for reasons such as the following:

• Omitting to look for pedestrians when making a right-hand turn at a stoplight.
• Failing to check for pedestrians when entering or exiting a driveway.
• Pedestrians walking parallel to a driver who then makes a left-hand turn into them.
• Running a red light.
• Texting or phoning while driving,
• Drunk driving
• Driving under the influence of drugs
• Traffic violation
• Inattention
