Pedestrian accident claims
An accident involving a pedestrian, on a path or a road, can be extremely serious. Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users especially as they do not have the exterior protection of a car. Therefore an accident involving a pedestrian can often result in fatal injuries.
If you were a pedestrian and have been injured as a result of a road traffic accident, you may be able to claim compensation.
Vehicle drivers should do all they can to avoid accidents with pedestrians. For example, they must drive at appropriate speeds, take care at traffic lights/pelican/pedestrian crossings, drive more slowly around schools and busy shopping areas. But most of all they must ensure that they keep a proper look out at all times.
It is possible to claim compensation for:
- Your physical injuries
- Psychological injury
- Treatment Costs
- Past and future loss of earnings
- Any other related financial losses or expenses
