What Factors Are Typically Reviewed After a Pedestrian Accident?
Pedestrian accidents are typically examined by reviewing roadway conditions, lighting, traffic flow, and the actions of both the driver and the pedestrian before the collision. Investigators may also evaluate visibility, vehicle speed, and physical evidence found on the roadway. Witness statements and surveillance footage, when available, can provide additional information about the sequence of events.
