Examples of pedestrian accidents
Drivers are required to use more care and caution with pedestrians than they do with other vehicles. When they do not, accidents such as these are likely:

• Pedestrians hit in a crosswalk by a car or truck
• Pedestrians hit by a car that fails to stop before making right turn
• Pedestrians sideswiped by a car or truck traveling too close to the shoulder or sidewalk
• Children hit when getting off a school bus
• Elderly persons hit when pushing shopping carts in supermarket parking lot

Consequences of pedestrian accidents
Because they are entirely vulnerable, pedestrians are killed more often than people involved in car collisions. In addition to fatal accidents, they often suffer catastrophic injuries, such as spinal cord injury and brain injury.
