At Omni Injury and Accident Law, PC, our trusted New York City pedestrian accident attorneys know that the city’s roads are home to more than just motor vehicles. In fact, the city is one of the most walkable in the U.S., where pedestrians line the streets morning, noon, and night to get to where they’re going.
Unfortunately, according to the NYPD, because of the high number of people traversing the city on foot, 8,600 of the 100,508 car accidents in NYC involved a pedestrian last year. These accidents resulted in 8,484 injuries and 116 deaths among pedestrians. In total, 9% of car accidents in New York City involved an injured or killed pedestrian over the same period.
If you have been injured or lost a loved one in a vehicle collision while on foot, allow our New York pedestrian accident attorneys to pursue the best outcome for your case using customized legal strategies designed to deliver the best results, starting with a free consultation.
New York City is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. This means the sheer number of people walking on the streets increases the likelihood of accidents. In addition, the city’s diverse range of transportation options, including cars, taxis, buses, bicycles, and pedestrians, can increase the risk of accidents, especially at intersections.
When drivers speed, fail to yield to pedestrians, or ignore traffic signals, they are putting pedestrians at risk. When they do, the result remains the same: The person on foot is at risk of catastrophic injuries.
Some of the most common injuries associated with pedestrian accidents include, but are not limited to:
Individuals with catastrophic injuries face a multitude of challenges that can impact virtually every aspect of their lives, including:
Catastrophic injuries often result in significant physical impairments, including loss of mobility, chronic pain, or limited dexterity. These impairments can affect a person’s ability to perform everyday tasks and may require extensive rehabilitation and medical care.
Coping with a catastrophic injury can lead to emotional and psychological challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief, and loss of self-esteem. Adjusting to life with a disability and facing uncertain futures can be emotionally overwhelming for many.
Catastrophic injuries often result in substantial medical expenses, including hospitalizations, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing therapy. Additionally, individuals may face lost income due to their inability to work and costs related to adaptive equipment, home modifications, and long-term care. These financial burdens can place significant strain on individuals and their families.<p
