Investigators Begin Identifying Men Suspected of Assaulting Disabled Women

Oakland Pedestrian Accident Attorney

 

More than two-thirds of pedestrian accidents occur in urban areas. The city of Oakland, the eighth largest city in California, has historically been one of the most dangerous metropolitan areas in the state for pedestrians, exhibiting the highest rate of pedestrian fatalities among the state’s cities since 1995. Although the city has taken dramatic steps to reduce pedestrian injuries and deaths including the installation of hundreds of speed bumps in residential areas and a campaign to provide pedestrian safety education for low-income immigrants in dense areas such as Chinatown accidents continue to occur on a near daily basis.

Types of Pedestrian Accidents

More than 350 pedestrians are struck by vehicles in Oakland every year. With any collision involving a car, bus, truck or motorcycle and an unprotected pedestrian, there is always the potential for catastrophic injury or fatality. Pedestrian accidents are common at crosswalks and at intersections, where slower moving young children and elderly people are most vulnerable to injury or death from a pedestrian accident. Statistically, the faster the vehicle is travelling, the greater risk for catastrophic injury (such as a brain injury or spinal cord injury) or wrongful death.  Pedestrians include joggers, walkers, skateboarders and all other on-foot transportation.
