Drivers of motor vehicles owe everyone else the highest duty of care while operating their car. It is the obligation of the automobile operator to be mindful of the whereabouts of pedestrians. Specific legal issues arise in these types of cases; specifically, whether or not the pedestrian had the right of way. Similar to car accidents involving bicycles or motorcyclists, common ways drivers can cause pedestrian accidents include:

  • Excessive speed
  • Ignoring a marked crosswalk
  • Failing to check for pedestrians when making a turn
  • Distracted by a hand-held device or a passenger
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
