Our pedestrian accident attorneys in Los Angeles represent pedestrians injured by careless or reckless drivers. When a vehicle hits a person crossing the road, walking across a parking lot, or walking along the street, the driver is often at fault. All drivers have a responsibility to prevent accidents when possible and must follow all applicable traffic rules – many of which are in place to protect pedestrians. According to the Los Angeles Almanac, this busy city has 22,000 miles of surface streets and more than 3 million commuters during the morning rush hour alone. Pedestrians in Los Angeles have to cross through traffic thousands of times every hour. Some areas are more dangerous than others, including one of the five most dangerous intersections in California, located at Lindley Avenue and Roscoe Boulevard. Gridlock, school traffic, and congested urban areas all increase the risk of accidents.
