Stonecrest, GA – Man Hit by Car in Critical Condition

Pedestrian Accidents in Georgia 

Pedestrian accidents pose a significant threat. They are usually more serious than other types of accidents because a car can seriously hurt an unprotected person even at a slow speed. As a result, there are more likely to be fatal pedestrian accidents. Nearly all pedestrian accidents result in injuries, and many of them result in wrongful deaths.

Accidents involving pedestrians are investigated and dealt with in a manner similar to those involving vehicles. According to the law, accident victims and their families are entitled to seek monetary damages for any losses incurred as a direct result of the accident.

Despite typically having the right of way, pedestrians are occasionally held responsible for accidents. Pedestrians who cross the street illegally, unexpectedly, and without warning may be partially or entirely to blame, even if they suffer severe injuries as a result of the collision.

If the pedestrian was at fault for the collision, the driver of the car might be entitled to compensation for expenses incurred, such as the cost of having the car repaired.

When a vehicle hits a pedestrian, the driver is almost always found to be at least partially at fault. This is because it is the driver’s responsibility to keep an eye out for pedestrians.
