Frank Penney Injury Lawyers in Roseville, CA, can help you with your pedestrian accident case. Pedestrians have a clear disadvantage when sharing an environment with a moving vehicle. Whether the vehicle is a car, bus, or motorcycle, the person on foot is likely to suffer the most harm in a pedestrian accident.
Pedestrian Accidents Caused by Distracted Driving
No matter how cautious they might be, pedestrians are always in danger of becoming the victim of someone who is texting while driving. Distracted driving accidents have become common, and studies have shown that texting while driving is as dangerous as driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol — another danger to pedestrians.
Our experienced pedestrian injury lawyers have represented victims in pedestrian accident claims who have suffered everything from a serious back injury to the loss of a loved one at the hands of a negligent driver.
When Negligent Road Design is the Problem
Sometimes the cause of a pedestrian accident isn’t negligent driving, but negligent road design. For example, if an intersection is constructed in such a way that the traffic lights are difficult to see, even the most attentive driver causes an accident. When a dangerous intersection causes a driver to hit a pedestrian, then both parties may have a case against the responsible third party.
When negligent road design is a factor, the responsible party is likely to be the government. The pedestrian accident attorneys at Frank Penney Injury Lawyers have experience handling the unique processes that are required in managing a government case. There will most likely need to be consultation with engineers and other road design or construction experts to get you the maximum pedestrian injury settlement.
Construction Zone Accidents
Walking by a construction zone can be a frightening experience because pedestrians are in danger of being sideswiped by passing cars, operated by drivers who aren’t obeying traffic rules as they zip around workers and moving construction vehicles. There is also the potential of being hit by the construction vehicles themselves and slipping or tripping over any number of objects.
