San Diego Crosswalk Accident and Pedestrian Accident Lawyer
Jun 16th, 2009 by admin
Crosswalks exist at every intersection, whether they are marked of not. If, however, the crosswalk is in the middle of the block, it must be marked and traffic signs warning drivers of its upcoming existence must be posted. Pedestrians in a crosswalk have the legal right of way, and a motor vehicle must yield the road to him.
If a driver is preoccupied – say, with changing the station on the radio or trying to calm a crying infant in the back seat – the driver may not see the pedestrian in time to stop. If the pedestrian survives the impact, he or she likely will have major injuries. In such a case, you should obtain the services of an experienced San Diego personal injury lawyer as soon as possible, as the driver’s insurance company will assign one of its investigators as soon as the claim is reported to it.
