Frequently Asked Questions
Are pedestrian accidents more common at night?
Reduced visibility after dark can make it harder for drivers to see people on foot, and a meaningful share of pedestrian crashes happen in evening or nighttime hours, especially near intersections and crosswalks.
What should a pedestrian do after being hit by a car?
If possible, call 911, stay at the scene, and seek medical evaluation even if injuries seem minor, since some injuries aren't immediately obvious. Getting contact and insurance information from the driver, if safe to do so, is also important.
Who has the right of way at a crosswalk?
In California, drivers are generally required to yield to pedestrians in marked and unmarked crosswalks at intersections, though pedestrians are also expected to exercise care and not step into traffic unsafely.
What are common injuries in pedestrian accidents?
Pedestrians can suffer broken bones, head injuries, and internal injuries, since they have little protection compared to someone inside a vehicle.
