Liability in a South San Gabriel Car Accident

California has strict laws when it comes to pedestrians. It’s important to always stop if you have struck a person on foot. Further, the driver of a vehicle that hits a pedestrian can be held liable for negligence if they were somehow impaired during the incident. Authorities consider a variety of factors when determining if negligence played a role in a crash, including:

–Distractions like talking on the phone, texting, engaging with passengers

–Extreme fatigue

–Being under the influence of drugs or alcohol

–Speeding

–Aggressive or reckless driving

Because the driver in this accident remained at the scene and was not found to be impaired, they may not be found liable for this tragic event. This is especially true because the pedestrian stepped into the vehicle’s path. However, the nuances of pedestrian laws could be used to find the driver partially responsible.

Always look out for pedestrians when driving, and as a pedestrian, make sure to pay close attention to vehicles at all times.
