Pedestrian Injury Attorney in London, Belleville, Gloucester and Fergus
Accidents that involve pedestrians more often than not result in serious injuries to the pedestrian, and have the potential of becoming long-term and even life-long impairments. As resilient the human body is, a heavy object moving at speed can cause irreparable harm to a pedestrian in the event of an accident. These types of collisions can have numerous contributing factors at the source. Poor weather, road construction, poorly lit intersections, as well as driver and pedestrian negligence can act as potential factors contributing to the accident.
Pedestrian accident victims almost always will require emergency medical treatment and potentially long periods of rehabilitation that can be quite costly. Because of the nature of these accidents, it Is typical for the pedestrian to not be able to work for a prolonged period of time following the collision, which means the loss of wages can place an undue financial and therefore emotional stress on the victim and their family.
The law governing accidents involving pedestrians is for the most part identical to the legislation governing other motor vehicle accident except for one major exception. The responsibility of proving their innocence falls on the driver instead of the pedestrian which allows victims of pedestrian accidents potentially receive substantially higher amounts of compensation.
