Pedestrian Injury
Pedestrian deaths are second only to occupant deaths
in vehicular accidents. While crossing the street is a skill
everybody learns, it is not something that can be taken for granted.
Every year, thousands of pedestrians are injured. If you are
injured, you may be eligible for compensation for your injuries.
Be sure you get all the information you can about the accident.
Secure any evidence available, find out the names and contact
information of witnesses, and get the names and insurance information
of the driver involved. Witnesses are especially important to
furnish evidence as to whose negligence caused the injuries.
In general, pedestrians have the right of way. You will be questioned
as to whether you used due care in crossing, used proper crossing
locations, etc. You may want to contact an attorney to assist
you.
What You Need To Know:
Insurance companies' obligations are to their stockholders
and policy holders, not to the people injured by their insured's
negligence. Insurance companies' desire to maximize their own
profits provides them with every motivation to try to deny your
claim or pay you the very minimum amount that they can get away
with. The insurance companies also have enormous advantages:
they have immense wealth, armies of experienced adjusters and
lawyers and years of experience reducing and denying claims.
