Chad Rankin and Bill Gregory have handled many pedestrian accidents. Many of their pedestrian accidents have involved clients who are struck by vehicles turning or running a red light while the client is legally crossing a street in the crosswalk.

According to PennDOT, pedestrians injured or killed by motorists were most likely crossing the street at an intersection, mid-block crossing, or driveway entrance. Simply crossing a street walking, running, jogging, or playing result in the most pedestrian accidents. Elderly pedestrians are involved in fewer fewer pedestrian crashes, but are more likely
to be fatally injured if struck by a moving  motor vehicle. Perhaps surprisingly, younger pedestrians (age 19 and under) account for 27% of the pedestrian injuries. PennDOT reports that most pedestrian fatalities and injuries occurred in areas without traffic control devices (TCDs).  In 2019, areas without TCDs accounted for 117 pedestrian fatalities and 2,075 injuries.

Recently Bill Gregory recovered a substantial six-figure settlement for a pedestrian accident where the client was properly crossing the street in a crosswalk. The at-fault driver was not paying attention when he made a left turn, which caused him to strike the pedestrian.

With the increase of distracted driving, teen driving accidents, texting while driving, accidents while looking at GPS, drowsy driving, DUI drinking and drugging intoxicated driving, pedestrians must be ever more vigilant about their safety by staying alert not getting distracted themselves. Always assume that drivers around you are not paying attention to pedestrians and stay safe! If the unthinkable happens and you or your loved one is struck by a motor vehicle, call our pedestrian accident law firm to discuss potential next steps to protect you or your family from unacceptably low settlements from the at-fault driver’s insurance company.
