Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Brentwood, TN
One of the most traumatic types of accidents anyone can go through is being hit by a car as a pedestrian. With so many people walking on the sidewalks every day, these incidents unfortunately happen often. Our team at Patterson Bray PLLC is fully aware of the impacts that these events can have on victims. People may be left with severe injury, monetary loss from missing work, and other damages. If you were recently hit by a moving vehicle, we urge you to reach out to our Brentwood, TN pedestrian accident lawyer about a case. You may be owed compensation from the driver responsible for how your health and life was negatively affected. We are ready to offer legal counsel today.
Causes Of Pedestrian Accidents
There are many contributing factors that could have led to the accident. The driver may have been texting or talking on their phone which made them too distracted to notice your presence. No one should be using cell phones while they are operating a moving vehicle. Drivers who get behind the wheel while intoxicated are dangerous to everyone on the road, particularly pedestrians. Impaired drivers may fail to stop at signs or street lights as pedestrians are walking across. Generally speaking, pedestrians have the right of way. Impatient drivers who are rushing to get where they need to be may not see a pedestrian walking in front of them. Other causes of pedestrian accidents can be bad weather, construction, cars making left turns at signals, and multi-lane/arterial roadways.
Getting Medical Attention
If you were hit by a car driver, you probably had to seek medical attention for your injuries. Rarely does someone walk away from an incident like this unscathed. The external body of a motor vehicle is strong and a pedestrian will have nothing to deflect the force of impact. Getting medical attention is essential. The medical documentation can be used as evidence to show the injuries you sustained and their severity. This can be influential when asking for compensation from the driver at fault because it shows how you were directly impacted from the incident. If you do not have medical care coverage or don’t know where to be seen by a doctor, please contact our dedicated pedestrian accident attorney now so that we can get you the treatment you need.
