Pedestrian accident law covers any type of accident in which a pedestrian is injured, whether the accident is vehicular (e.g., a pedestrian is struck by a motor vehicle) or non-vehicular (e.g., a pedestrian is slips and falls on a poorly maintained sidewalk). (If a motorist leaves the scene of a vehicular pedestrian accident, "hit-and-run" laws typically come into play.) In both vehicular and premises liability-related pedestrian accidents, drivers, property owners, and pedestrians are all obligated to exercise "reasonable care" to prevent accidents, and a number of liability laws will likely impinge on the victim's claim. If the pedestrian can prove that the defendant's negligence caused or contributed to the incident, the injured may not be able to obtain full compensation for his or her injuries.
