Failure to yield and stop at intersections, driving without proper care and attention, intentional disregard of traffic rules and regulations, driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and generally not watching for people crossing the street are the most common causes of pedestrian accidents injuries. When a driver attempts to beat a red traffic light or is in too much of a hurry, a pedestrian accident is likely to happen. Some estimates show that over 100,000 pedestrian accident injuries occur a year, with thousands of these accidents resulting in fatalities. Of all automobile accidents, pedestrian accidents involving a car tend to be the most severe. Pedestrians simply do not have much of a chance against a large, fast-moving vehicle, and as a result, many pedestrian car collisions result in serious personal injury or death.
