At Miracle Law, APC, our dedicated pedestrian accident lawyers represent clients throughout California, because at some point throughout the day, we are all pedestrians who are vulnerable to negligent drivers.
Last year, the U.S. Department of Transportation reported 76,000 pedestrians were injured in traffic crashes, with one accident involving a person on foot occurring every seven minutes nationally.
Tragically, over the same period, pedestrians accounted for nearly 19% of national traffic fatalities, accounting for 6,205 people killed, equaling one estimated death every 84 minutes — including the 972 pedestrians who were killed in traffic collisions throughout California, according to the Office of Traffic Safety.
Even when the cause of a Rancho Cucamonga pedestrian accident was clear, injury victims have the responsibility to prove the other person was negligent in causing the crash, and the harm they endured.
What is more, those who are hurt will be immediately contacted by insurance representatives who are highly trained on long established company tactics in developing confusing dialogue that could lead the injury victim to inadvertently take some blame for the collision or admit they may not be as hurt as they first thought as a way to minimize their recovery. Therefore, it is important to speak with a skilled Rancho Cucamonga pedestrian accident lawyer before giving a statement to the insurance company.
Once we take your pedestrian accident and injury case, we are in this together. Let’s fight.
Why are Pedestrian Accidents So Common in Rancho Cucamonga?
Over the past few years, pedestrian accidents, injuries, and fatalities reached a 30-year high.
Sadly, nearly all pedestrian accident causes can be prevented, which means the injuries and fatalities that occur could too.
Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of pedestrian accidents in California and across the country. Even though handheld devices are outlawed behind the wheel of a vehicle, it does not stop drivers from using their cellphones while driving.
Practically, when drivers are looking down at their cellphones, it is nearly impossible to see someone crossing the street — even when he or she is legally walking with the proper traffic signal.
Additionally, other common causes of pedestrian accidents in California include:
- Speeding
- Failing to Stop or Yield at Pedestrian Crossing or Right of Way
- Impaired Driving
- Drivers Disregarding Traffic Patterns
- Making Improper Turns
- Fatigued Driving
- Failing to Obey Traffic Signs and Signals
- Drivers Entering, Exiting, or Reversing Parking Lots, Garages, or Other Structures
