How Common Are Pedestrian Accidents?
Pedestrian deaths and injury accidents may happen for any number of reasons, and often times are caused by driver distraction of some kind. According to the CDC, these distractions often fall into three main categories, which include visual distraction (not paying attention to the road with your eyes), manual distraction (not having your hands on the wheel), and cognitive distraction (not focusing your thoughts on the task at hand – driving). When drivers aren’t paying attention to the road, pedestrians can be injured as a result.

Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents
Texting or Using Your Phone While Driving
Texting while driving takes a driver’s eyes, hands, and focus off the road, leading to serious accidents. Even hands-free texting can cause dangerous distractions. Drivers who injure pedestrians due to phone use can be held liable for damages.
Distracted, Drunk, or Drowsy Driving
Inattention from distraction, intoxication, or fatigue significantly impairs a driver’s ability to see and respond to pedestrians, increasing accident risks.
Dangerous Road Structures
High-speed roads and highways with fewer intersections lower driver expectations of pedestrian presence, reducing caution and increasing the chance of accidents.
Unsafe Intersections
Poorly marked intersections lacking signs, signals, or crosswalks confuse drivers and endanger pedestrians trying to cross.
Obstacles on Private Property
Items like fences, bushes, or mailboxes near roads can block visibility for both drivers and pedestrians, contributing to collisions.
Lack of Safety Awareness
Pedestrians should wear bright clothing and walk facing traffic to stay visible and aware of oncoming vehicles.
