Fresno Pedestrian Accidents and Personal Injury Claims

California law requires motorists to exercise a heightened duty of care toward pedestrians, due to their greater vulnerability to serious injury in a collision. The female pedestrian injured in this crash may have grounds to pursue a personal injury claim against the driver involved. 

A personal injury claim can provide compensation for damages including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. However, if negligence on the pedestrian’s part is found to have contributed to the accident, any settlement may be reduced.
