Winning Trials since 1979

Medina, NY (August 6, 2025) – A 25-year-old individual was struck by a vehicle Wednesday in a residential area of Medina, according to scanner reports. The incident occurred at approximately 7 Applegate Dr, prompting an urgent response from Medina Ambulance and local emergency personnel.

The individual was reportedly walking or standing near the roadway when the collision occurred. Neighbors in the area noted a heavy emergency presence shortly after the incident, and the victim was treated on scene for visible injuries before being transported to a nearby hospital. The condition of the pedestrian has not been publicly released at this time.

Applegate Dr was temporarily blocked while emergency crews assisted the victim and gathered preliminary details about the incident. Local law enforcement is investigating the circumstances surrounding the collision, including whether speed, distraction, or limited visibility in the residential zone may have contributed.

Our thoughts are with the injured pedestrian and their family as recovery efforts begin.

Pedestrian Collisions in New York

Wednesday’s pedestrian-involved crash on Applegate Dr is part of a larger concern seen throughout towns and small cities across New York State—where vehicle-versus-pedestrian incidents occur in residential areas often assumed to be safe.

In neighborhoods like Medina, pedestrian safety is frequently compromised by parked vehicles, unclear signage, and drivers unfamiliar with the area. Even during daylight hours, pedestrians can be struck when motorists fail to yield, become distracted, or simply don’t anticipate foot traffic in low-volume zones.

The New York State Department of Health reports hundreds of pedestrian injuries annually across the state, many of which occur in non-commercial, low-speed zones. And while vehicle speeds in residential areas are typically reduced, injuries can still be severe—particularly when pedestrians are caught off-guard or the vehicle’s driver doesn’t stop in time.

For the individuals involved, the effects are often more than physical. Victims of pedestrian crashes may face long-term rehabilitation, emotional trauma, and lost wages, all while managing a complex web of insurance claims and legal questions. Prompt access to medical care, recovery planning, and legal support becomes critical during the first days following such an incident.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a pedestrian collision, taking informed and immediate action is key to protecting your recovery.
