Pedestrian Intersection Accidents in California

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported in 2016 that collisions at intersections amounted to just 18% of pedestrian accident deaths. This statistic should remind us of how frequently pedestrians are killed outside of crosswalks and intersections. Drivers must be alert for pedestrians at all times and in all situations. While many of us don’t expect to encounter pedestrians on roadsides or along freeways, it is always possible that pedestrians may be encountered on any roadway.
