What Are the Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents?

Some of the most frequent causes include:

  • Failure to yield at crosswalks: Drivers ignoring traffic signals or crosswalk rules can strike pedestrians who are legally crossing;
  • Distracted driving: Cell phone use or other distractions take drivers’ eyes off the road, endangering those on foot;
  • Speeding in residential zones: Excessive speed reduces a driver’s reaction time, especially near homes, schools, or parks; and
  • Poor visibility: Nighttime driving or bad weather can contribute to drivers not seeing pedestrians in time.

Each of these scenarios can lead to catastrophic injuries.

What Is the Statute of Limitation in Pennsauken Township?

Pedestrian accident victims have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim.

If the accident involves a government agency, a notice of claim must be filed within 90 days, which makes early legal action crucial.
