A pedestrian is at a great disadvantage in a collision with a driver or passenger in a car or truck accident. The pedestrian does not have the benefit of a car body surrounding him or her, and is often injured badly. Hit-and-run accidents are not uncommon when a pedestrian is involved in a crash. An injured pedestrian often suffers a serious or catastrophic injury.
Pedestrians are typically going about their business, walking to and from stores, in parking lots or on hiking trails. A driver of a car or truck may collide with a pedestrian for a number of reasons:
- The driver of the motor vehicle "didn't see" the pedestrian.
- One or the other committed a traffic violation.
- The car or truck was speeding.
- A jogger crossed a street without checking for oncoming traffic.
