Clovis Pedestrian Accidents and Personal Injury Claims
California law requires drivers to exercise an extra duty of care toward pedestrians, remaining vigilant and prepared to stop when pedestrians are present in or near the roadway.
Because both the injured pedestrian and the driver are minors, the driver’s parents or guardians could bear responsibility for his actions through California’s “vicarious liability” law.
The injured boy’s family may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim, which can provide compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages related to the accident.
