Pedestrian Accidents in California

Almost 7,000 pedestrian fatalities occurred last year, and the number continues to increase. Sadly, when pedestrians are hit by vehicles overnight, the reason is often fatigued driving or drunk driving. Being drunk and tired produce the same bodily effects, such as blurry vision, inability to keep eyes open, slow reactions, and inability to control one’s body. Therefore, it’s common for drivers to hit pedestrians, especially when it’s dark outside. Drivers are supposed to grant pedestrians the right of way no matter what time of day, and no matter if pedestrians are in unmarked crosswalks or not.
