One of the first and most important rules of the road that drivers are taught is that pedestrians have the right of way. What this means may not always be immediately clear, but generally speaking, it requires that drivers yield to pedestrians who are crossing the road in front of them.

At a minimum, every driver should take great pains to ensure that he or she does not strike a defenseless pedestrian with a motor vehicle since the consequences can be devastating. Unfortunately, each year there are thousands of negligent drivers who fail to uphold this essential responsibility, and pedestrians suffer serious injury or death as a result.

If you have been struck by a negligent or reckless driver, or have tragically lost a loved one who was killed in such a collision, then you may be entitled to pursue a legal action against the responsible party.
