Pedestrian Accidents in Oklahoma
Pedestrian-involved crashes are often severe due to the lack of protection for those on foot. These incidents frequently occur at intersections or crosswalks, where visibility, driver distraction, and right-of-way violations can play a role. Even at low speeds, pedestrian accidents can lead to serious injuries, including broken bones, head trauma, and internal injuries.
Pedestrians are encouraged to use marked crosswalks and remain alert to traffic, while drivers should always yield the right-of-way when necessary and remain vigilant in high-pedestrian areas. In the event of an accident, victims may have the right to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
If you or a loved one has been involved in a pedestrian accident, understanding your legal options and seeking the right support can be crucial for recovery.
