Pedestrian car accidents happen often, and pedestrians are often unsure what to do next. The pedestrian may feel overwhelmed, lost, and confused in an accident. Most of these accidents can cause severe injuries and sometimes fatal consequences. In Wisconsin, 39,723 pedestrians<\/a> were involved in an accident in 2019. If you have been involved in a pedestrian car accident or a loved one was struck by a car, here are a few steps you should take next and the legal options including a personal injury claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Health is a Priority<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you happen to be involved in an accident while walking or crossing the road, your health should come first. If you can move, move to a distance to a safe location to avoid traffic. Even if you don’t feel hurt, you should seek medical intervention to identify hidden injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gather as Much Information at the Scene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you seek legal action and file a personal injury claim, you must submit enough evidence to validate your claim. Take pictures at the scene; if the driver is collaborative, you can ask for his insurance details. If there are eyewitnesses, you may request their contact information to support your claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Report the Incident<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Report the accident as soon as possible to the police. A police report will help validate your case more in the personal injury claim if you can provide the police with what happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consult with a Personal Injury Lawyer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some of these cases can be very complicated, for instance, a hit-and-run case. Hire a personal injury lawyer<\/a> experienced in pedestrian car accidents who will help you compile the evidence, provide legal advice, and help you file your claim.<\/p>\n\n\n
