Frequently Asked Questions
Where do most pedestrian accidents happen?

Are pedestrian accidents more common at night?
Low-light conditions do raise risk since drivers have less time to see and react to someone on foot, though daytime crashes like this one also happen frequently near busy retail areas.
What should a pedestrian do after being hit by a car?
If possible, call 911 immediately, stay at the scene, seek medical evaluation even for minor-seeming injuries, and get the names of any witnesses and the responding officer.
Who has the right of way at a crosswalk?
Pedestrians generally have the right of way in marked and unmarked crosswalks, but drivers and walkers are both expected to use caution at intersections and driveways.
