Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents
Generally, pedestrian accidents take place when a motorist participates in reckless or negligent activities, such as:
- Speeding
- Distracted driving
- Failure to stop at an intersection
- Failure to yield before turning at a light
- Failure to abide by signs
Other Types of Accidents Involving Pedestrians
While most serious pedestrian accidents take place as a direct result of vehicle collisions, other types of pedestrian accidents occur as well. For instance, if a property owner fails to maintain reasonably safe conditions on his or her property and a pedestrian suffers harm as a direct result, the pedestrian may have the right to file a premises liability claim against the property owner.
