Pedestrian Accidents in California
Unfortunately, statistics show that in 2015, a pedestrian was killed almost every 2 hours in California. Most pedestrian accidents are caused by drivers being inattentive on the road, especially if they’re using a handheld device while they’re driving. Other causes include talking with passengers, looking at outside scenery, eating, or searching for items. Whenever drivers strike pedestrians in parking lots, it’s usually due to some form of distracting behavior. Other causes could be disregarding pedestrian signs and failing to abide by traffic laws, all of which fall under negligent behavior.
