Pedestrian Accidents in Maryland
Pedestrian-involved crashes can have devastating consequences, particularly in residential areas like Rockville, where traffic and foot traffic often intersect. Common causes of pedestrian accidents include distracted driving, failure to yield, and poor visibility in low-light conditions.
Maryland law requires drivers to stop for pedestrians in crosswalks and exercise caution in areas where foot traffic is common. However, both drivers and pedestrians must remain alert to avoid accidents.
For those injured in pedestrian crashes, medical expenses, rehabilitation, and lost wages can create significant challenges. Understanding legal rights and options for seeking compensation can be essential in the recovery process.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a pedestrian accident, speaking with a knowledgeable professional can help you explore your options and take the necessary steps toward recovery.
