Pedestrian Accidents

As a pedestrian, you have specific rights and responsibilities. You should obey traffic signals, walk on sidewalks, use crosswalks, and walk against traffic if no pedestrian walkways are available. As long as you obey traffic laws as a pedestrian, you should be reasonably protected from harm. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Negligent drivers can place pedestrians at risk of serious injury or even death. Were you struck by a motor vehicle? Have you lost a loved one in a pedestrian accident in Wisconsin? Talk to a pedestrian accident attorney at The Previant Law Firm, S.C. and find out what right you have to hold the negligent driver or other responsible party accountable. Your medical bills, lost earnings, and other losses should be covered by the party that caused you harm.

Crosswalk Laws in Wisconsin
Specific laws associated with crossing the street are covered under: Wisconsin Statute 346.23. Many accidents throughout Wisconsin occur because drivers do not abide by the laws covered here.

Types of Pedestrian Injuries
Pedestrians are at risk of suffering catastrophic injuries, even in low-speed traffic accidents. They are completely unprotected when struck by a motor vehicle that may weigh thousands of pounds, and they may experience significant physical trauma in collisions in parking lots, crosswalks, intersections, driveways, or open roads.

Broken bones
Internal organ damage
Spinal cord injury
