Frequently Asked Questions
Who has the right of way at a crosswalk?
In most states, including Michigan, pedestrians have the right of way once they've entered a marked or unmarked crosswalk, and drivers are required to stop or yield to let them cross safely.
What can drivers do to avoid hitting someone on foot?
Slowing down near intersections, scanning both sides of the road before turning, and staying off the phone are some of the simplest ways to spot a pedestrian in time to stop.
What injuries are common in pedestrian crashes?
Pedestrians hit by vehicles sometimes suffer broken bones, head injuries, and internal injuries, since they have little protection compared to someone inside a car.
What usually causes these crashes?
Poor visibility at night, distracted driving, and drivers failing to yield at crosswalks or intersections are frequent factors in pedestrian crashes.
What to Do After a Pedestrian Accident in Flint, MI
If you witness or are involved in a pedestrian crash, call 911 right away so emergency crews can reach the scene quickly. Even if injuries seem minor at first, it's worth getting checked by a medical professional, since some injuries like concussions or internal bleeding aren't obvious right away. If you're a witness, staying nearby to give a statement to police can help investigators piece together what happened. Avoid moving an injured person unless there's immediate danger, and keep the area as safe as possible for arriving responders. In the days after, writing down what you remember while it's fresh can help if there's a police follow-up investigation.
