Pedestrian Accidents Involving Semi-Trucks in Mendota CA

Pedestrians are owed extreme caution from drivers, especially at night when visibility is just another threat to a pedestrian’s safety. In less populated sections of Fresno County, finding safe crosswalks and properly lit intersections can be difficult for those on foot.

Walkers may find zero crosswalks or even stoplights for miles and be forced to confront fast-moving traffic. Distracted or careless drivers may not be fully focused on the road when they fail to spot a pedestrian and slow down to prevent a collision.

Support for Families After a Pedestrian Accident in Mendota

Families are too often forced to live their lives without the care and guidance of a loved one after a tragedy. Close relatives may also have the costs of a burial, the bills from emergency response and other fees laid at their feet after an accident. The family will also face the loss of the financial support a victim may have provided through employment.

After an accident, the at-fault driver’s insurance policy should be drawn from in order to provide families the support they need to avoid financial hardships. This includes hardships experienced in present and in the years to come. If an accident involves a truck driver, the driver’s trucking company may also have to contribute compensation to the family.
