Pedestrian Accidents in Urban Baltimore
Pedestrian-involved accidents remain a serious safety concern in Baltimore, especially in dense, mixed-use zones like Key Hwy. The combination of heavy traffic, narrow sidewalks, and dim evening lighting can increase the likelihood of a person being struck.
According to the Maryland Department of Transportation, pedestrian fatalities and injuries have risen over recent years, with Baltimore ranking among the highest cities in the state for such incidents. Intersections and stretches of roadway lacking adequate crossing infrastructure contribute significantly to these numbers.
For pedestrians injured in accidents like this one, the physical and emotional impact can be severe. Prompt medical attention, legal advice, and an understanding of one’s rights are all critical after such an incident.
