FAQ for Pedestrian Accident Lawyers

What Are The Most Common Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents?
Pedestrian accidents often result in serious and life-changing injuries due to the lack of protection compared to vehicle occupants. Some of the most common injuries include:
  • Head and Brain Injuries: These can range from concussions to traumatic brain injuries (TBI), often leading to long-term cognitive and physical impairments.
  • Broken Bones and Fractures: Legs, arms, ribs, and pelvis fractures are common due to the force of impact and falling to the ground.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries: Damage to the spine can cause partial or complete paralysis and require extensive medical care. Internal Injuries: Damage to organs such as the lungs, liver, or kidneys can occur, often requiring emergency surgery.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Includes severe bruising, lacerations, and muscle or ligament damage, which may result in chronic pain and mobility issues.
  • Psychological Trauma: Emotional and psychological effects such as PTSD, anxiety, and depression are also common after a traumatic pedestrian accident.
