San Jose, CA (April 23, 2019) On the evening of April 21^st, a hit-and-run pedestrian accident happened at 1700 Foxworthy Avenue, not far from Kirk Road.

The reports stated that a light-colored sedan struck a 27-year-old named Antonio Prado in the Willow Glen neighborhood at approximately 8:15 p.m. Unfortunately, the driver did not stop to check to make sure Prado was alright.

Pedestrian Accidents in California

Sadly, thousands of pedestrians are injured in California every year, and the numbers continue to rise. Most pedestrian accidents occur when drivers fail to yield or stop for them, regardless if they have the right of way or not. Sometimes pedestrians put themselves at risk of being hurt when they decide to run across the street wearing dark clothing late at night. However, drivers are still expected to drive safely on the roads after hours just in case a pedestrian crosses the street outside of a marked crosswalk.
