Pedestrian Accidents in Sacramento
Unfortunately, statistics reveal that 19 pedestrians died after being struck by vehicles in Sacramento in 2017. These accidents are almost always caused by negligence, which includes speed, violation of traffic laws, or drugs and/or alcohol. The government has created specific laws to protect pedestrians’ rights that all motorists are expected to abide by. One of these laws states that all motorists must yield whenever they see a pedestrian in the roadway, regardless of who has the right-of-way.
