Pedestrian Accidents in California
Sadly, pedestrian accidents occur every day in California, the lead cause being distracted driving. There are countless reasons why drivers are distracted on the road, most of which include seemingly minor activities, such as eating, combing hair, fixing makeup, texting, conversing with others, searching for items on the floor, and more. Even though these distractions don’t seem dangerous, they put drivers and others around them at serious risk of sustaining injuries. Because pedestrians don’t have the luxury of being shielded as they travel, they are at risk of sustaining catastrophic or even fatal injuries.
