Common Pedestrian Accident Injuries

Pedestrian accidents are caused by drivers who are not paying attention to the road, or even those who are driving while fatigued. Reckless driving, such as speeding, failing to obey traffic lights and signs, and failing to adequately check crosswalks can also lead to pedestrian accidents. Because pedestrians do not have adequate external protection, they are extremely susceptible to serious injuries and even fatalities. Here are some examples of common pedestrian accident injuries:

• Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
• Spinal cord injuries
• Broken bones
• Neck injuries
• Lacerations 
• Amputations
• And more
