Are you seeking compensation after you were struck by a vehicle while walking? Watch this video to learn what steps after a pedestrian accident you should take.
What should I do if I was injured in a pedestrian accident in Augusta?
I had a client that was hit by an automobile as a pedestrian on Walton Way, close to the VA Hospital. That client asked me if the car or the pedestrian has the right of way. If you’re reading this, you may have that same question.
In Georgia, if a client is in a proper crossing, they have the right of way and a driver must yield to pedestrians in the crosswalk. Many times, car drivers argue that the pedestrian suddenly appeared or they darted in front of the car. That’s why it’s important to hire a car accident lawyer as soon as possible so they can help you prosecute your case for your injuries.
