When roads become busy, many people find it more efficient and enjoyable to travel by foot. This is especially popular in cities, such as Reno, where traffic can build up rather quickly. Although walking can be a healthy way to travel, it is not a danger-free method of transportation. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2013, 4,735 Americans sustained fatal injuries in pedestrian accidents.

If you were injured in a pedestrian accident, our team may be able to pursue financial compensation for your damages. This can include any medical expenses, your pain and suffering, and more.

Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents can occur for a number of reasons. In most cases, these types of collisions occur when a driver participates in negligent or reckless activities, such as the following:

• Distracted driving
• Speeding
• Failure to yield before turning right
• Failure to stop at an intersection

Other Types of Pedestrian Accidents

Although many fatal pedestrian accidents occur as a direct result of auto accidents, other types of pedestrian accidents exist. For example, if a homeowner or property owner fails to maintain a relatively safe premises and a pedestrian sustains injuries as a direct result, the pedestrian may be able to file a premises liability claim against the owner of the home or property. Because these types of cases can become extremely complicated, it is wise to contact superior legal advocacy as soon as possible. We encourage you to speak with our Reno personal injury lawyer to discuss a strategy to move forward with your legal case.
