Common Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents

Cars, trucks, and other motor vehicles can inflict severe bodily harm when they collide with a person who is on foot. Since vehicles typically weigh several thousand pounds, the force of an impact can place a great deal of stress on different parts of the body, even when a vehicle is only traveling a few miles per hour. Pedestrians who are hit by cars may experience injuries such as:

• Broken bones in parts of the body such as the arms, legs, ribs, or hips
• Traumatic brain injuries that may occur when a vehicle strikes a person or when they hit their head on the ground or other objects
• Spinal cord injuries that may result in partial or complete paralysis in different parts of the body
• Internal injuries that may involve damage to bodily organs or internal bleeding
• Soft tissue injuries, including severe sprains, strained muscles, torn ligaments or cartilage, or dislocated joints
• Severe cuts and lacerations that may result in permanent scarring and disfigurement

Pedestrian Accident Lawyers Who Will Stand Up to Insurance Companies

As soon as a pedestrian accident occurs, insurance company investigators and claims adjusters may come to the scene to collect evidence and protect the individuals at fault. Most of the time, their goal is to deny compensation to injured people and their families. To properly respond to the actions taken by insurance company personnel, a victim will need to make sure they are represented by an attorney who can help them protect their right to receive compensation.
