Pedestrian Accidents in California
The unfortunate truth is that pedestrians are often left with serious injuries as a result of car accidents that take place in our state every year. Even though walking is generally considered a safe and enjoyable activity, when it comes to being involved in an accident, pedestrians are incredibly vulnerable. Unlike other people involved in crashes, pedestrians do not have steel cages to guard them against the impact of collisions. As a result, they are likely to suffer injuries that permanently impact their lives.
