What Are the Common Pedestrian Accident Injuries?

Some of the most common injuries we see include: 

  • Broken bones: Fractures in the arms, legs, or ribs are frequent when a car strikes a pedestrian;
  • Head and brain injuries: Concussions and traumatic brain injuries can occur even in accidents at lower speeds;
  • Spinal cord damage: These injuries may lead to lasting pain or, in severe cases, paralysis;
  • Internal injuries: Damage to organs or internal bleeding may not be visible right away but can be life-threatening; and
  • Soft tissue injuries: Sprains, strains, and torn ligaments require extended medical care including physical therapy and often surgery.

These injuries can present victims with long recoveries, high medical bills, and time away from work.

How Long Do You Have to File a Claim?

The statute of limitations in New Jersey gives victims two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. If the case involves a government entity, a notice of claim must usually be filed within 90 days.
