New Jersey Pedestrian Accident Lawyers in Cherry Hill, NJ Seek Maximum Compensation for Clients Injured by Motor Vehicles While Walking, Jogging or Biking in Burlington County, Camden County, Cumberland County, and Throughout South Jersey

Whether or not a person drives, everyone shares the road as a pedestrian at some point. Pedestrians are at risk on roadways, particularly when crossing at an intersection, walking through parking lots, or on the sidewalk. The pedestrian fatality rate in New Jersey is 1.61 per 100,000 people, which is the 15th highest among all states. Pedestrians are particularly vulnerable in an accident involving a car, as they have no structure to protect them. Richard DiTomaso and the experienced New Jersey pedestrian accident lawyers at DiTomaso Law can help accident victims and their families get the compensation they deserve and restore their peace of mind. If you or a loved one have been injured in a pedestrian accident, contact one of our dedicated New Jersey pedestrian accident lawyers at 856-414-0010 and get your free consultation today.

Pedestrian Accidents Often Caused by Irresponsible Drivers

Car accidents involving pedestrians can occur for a variety of reasons, but most of them are the result of negligent driver behavior. Common causes of pedestrian injuries include:

Any of these behaviors can cause a driver to lose focus long enough to miss seeing an oncoming pedestrian.

Pedestrian Safety Initiatives Aim to Reduce Accident Fatalities

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Federal Highway Administration take pedestrian safety very seriously, and have new initiatives to promote awareness of the risks. The NHTSA has given grants to developers in Philadelphia, Louisville and New York to create demonstration projects that educate the public or promote enforcement of traffic safety measures. There is also a recent wave of pedestrian decoy operations, in which undercover police officers dress in very visible clothes and pose as pedestrians, to track driver behavior.

Pedestrian Accident Injuries Can Be More Severe

Our team of New Jersey pedestrian accident lawyers understands how pedestrians who are involved in accidents often suffer catastrophic injuries, including broken bones, loss of limb, brain trauma, spinal injuries, and internal injuries. These injuries can require long recovery periods, during which victims may be unable to work. They also often result in costly medical treatments, and may have life-long repercussions. In many cases, these injuries prove to be fatal. Injuries for pedestrians are much more severe than multi-vehicle accidents, as a vehicle provides the safety of a steel frame, seat belts, and airbags.

Pedestrian accidents often carry a heavy financial and emotional burden for the victims, in addition to painful physical consequences. If a pedestrian accident was the result of negligent driver behavior, the driver can be held responsible for any injuries that the pedestrian incurs. The injured victim may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, long-term care, lost wages and future earnings, and pain and suffering.

What To Do If You Have Been In An Accident

If you have been injured in a pedestrian accident, it is important to seek medical treatment for your injuries right away. You should obtain thorough documentation of your injuries, as well as the circumstances of the accident, and consult an experienced car accident lawyer to determine who is at fault for the accident. Your attorney can help review your options to ensure that the responsible party is held accountable for their negligence and you receive the compensation you deserve.
