Results of Pedestrian Injury Accidents
Usually, a pedestrian accident is caused by the negligence of an auto or motorcycle driver, and are often a result of driver distraction. Hitting a pedestrian in California or any other state can cause insurmountable damages, and includes high medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages or loss of a normal life.
Pedestrian accidents occur when someone attempts to cross a highway or busy street on foot, or encounters hazards along the way. Pedestrian accident injuries can include:
- Back and head injuries
- Complete physical debilitation
- Trauma

Some states allow a pedestrian to receive compensation for an accident involving a motor vehicle even when the pedestrian is at fault.
