Auto Accidents in California
Being struck by a vehicle as a pedestrian can have life-altering consequences. In California, we witness countless individuals facing the aftermath of auto accidents every month, often due to the carelessness of drivers. When drivers neglect the responsibility of operating their vehicles in a safe manner, it's the pedestrians who suffer the most severe outcomes.
Pedestrian accidents often occur because of drivers engaging in reckless behaviors, such as driving under the influence, speeding, or other forms of negligent conduct. These actions can lead to catastrophic events, leaving innocent pedestrians with grave injuries.
Experiencing injuries like traumatic brain injuries, severe fractures, or damage to internal organs can instantly change the course of one's life. Victims of such accidents frequently require long-term medical care, and in some instances, they may face permanent disabilities that alter their ability to live as they once did.
