Pedestrian accidents may result in grave injures, traumatic brain injury or death because pedestrians are vulnerable and stand very little chance against a 3,000-plus-pound car. Pedestrians are 1.5 times more likely than vehicle occupants to be killed in a car crash.
The Washington Department of Transportation reported 2,251 pedestrian crashes in 2019 state wide, including the staggering 101 fatalities and 365 serious injuries. If you or your loved one was hit by a car, consider scheduling an appointment with our team to help you understand your legal rights.
