Pedestrian Accident Reports in California

Contributing to pedestrian accidents throughout the Golden State are factors such as speeding, failure to yield, and distracted driving. At intersections and crosswalks in California, pedestrians are normally granted the right of way. Victims or their families may pursue personal injury or unlawful death claims if a pedestrian is injured or dies as a consequence of a driver's negligence.

As well as non-economic losses, such as agony and suffering, damages may be awarded to compensate for medical expenses. Compensation is adjusted by the comparative negligence system in California, which allows injured parties to recover damages even if they are partially at fault. It is essential to exercise expeditious legal action, as the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident.
