Did you know that, according to the NHTSA, 90% of pedestrians could survive being hit by a vehicle traveling at 20 miles per hour? At 40 miles per hour, your chances of survival are reduced to just 10%. When Anaheim drivers choose to use excessive speed, that crosswalk can be just as hazardous as the freeway.

Crosswalks were introduced as a safe means for pedestrians to cross busy roads, and do this very well when motorists comply with the rules of the road. Once a pedestrian has stepped onto a crosswalk, they are protected from oncoming traffic. However, when a driver is under the influence of alcohol or drugs, distracted, or driving at excessive speed, this protection is, essentially, void. Should a driver choose to pilot their vehicle in a negligent or deliberately dangerous manner, you are, essentially, a sitting duck while on the crosswalk.

Whatever the contributing factors involved in your Anaheim crosswalk accident, you can have confidence in the ability of a Compass Law Group, PC attorney to expertly handle your case. Through collating and analyzing all available evidence, including reconstructing the accident where required, we will prove that you were injured through the fault of another and, therefore, are entitled to monetary compensation. This compensation is intended to cover the costs of your ever-mounting medical bills, as well as the earnings you have lost while unable to work, and other costs incurred because of your injuries.
