Why Pedestrian Crashes Require Careful Investigation
Pedestrian crashes require investigators to carefully examine the circumstances surrounding the collision. Roadway markings, traffic controls, vehicle positions, and witness statements can all help determine how the crash occurred.
Because pedestrians have little physical protection, even lower-speed impacts can result in significant injuries. Medical evaluations may identify injuries that are not immediately apparent at the scene.
Drivers and pedestrians both play important roles in roadway safety by remaining alert, obeying traffic signals, and watching carefully at crossings and driveways. These precautions can help reduce the risk of pedestrian collisions.
