Pedestiran Accidents - Sunday, January 25, 2009

Over 4600 pedestrians were killed in traffic accidents in 2004 alone. In the same year, about 68,000 pedestrians were injured. A pedestrian is injured every 8 minutes on average in the U.S. Avoid being injured as a pedestrian. Use crosswalks. Obey traffic signals. Cross streets only at intersections and crosswalks. Look left, right, and left again, before stepping off the curb to cross a road or street. Wear light colored clothing if you will be walking at dusk, dawn, or night.

If you or a family member has been the victim of a pedestrian accident, call CGWC for a free consultation about your legal rights.
