Pedestrian Accidents Can Be Severe
Pedestrians are at high risk of injury in a collision with a vehicle. The average passenger vehicle weighs around 4,000 pounds and can inflict serious damage to the human body. It is not uncommon for us to see the following injuries as a result of a pedestrian versus vehicle collision:
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Bone fractures
- Loss of or damage to a bodily organ
- Dismemberment or amputation
- Significant disfigurement
- Other injuries that inhibit a person’s daily activities
These injuries usually lead to significant medical expenses for victims and their families, as well as various other hidden accident costs (lost income, home and vehicle modifications, and more).
The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) says that there were 15,200 pedestrian injuries during the latest reporting year in the state. The five-year rolling average for annual pedestrian fatalities, as of 2017, was 811.
