What to Do if You Are an Injured Pedestrian:

Pedestrians are always vulnerable to vehicular traffic and road hazards. If you or a loved one are a foot or a cyclist and have been injured as the result of someone's negligence, you are owed an even higher duty of care by drivers and those who maintain the roads and sidewalks.

The duty of care owed to pedestrians is not limited to marked crosswalks. Motorists are required to be vigilant and aware of their surroundings at all times and they are required to take all steps reasonably possible to avoid an avoidable accident. It is not necessarily a defense that someone was "jaywalking" if a reasonable motorist could have avoided the accident. The law in this area is complex and nuanced and every fact pattern should be reviewed by an attorney for a definitive legal analysis.

As a pedestrian, you may be entitled to receive medical benefits under the at-fault driver's car insurance policy. Don't let a lack of health insurance coverage or worry over incurring medical debt cause you to not immediately treat your injuries. Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits are no-fault, meaning an injured person may receive medical benefits regardless of who was at fault for the incident. Passengers and pedestrians are eligible to receive PIP benefits from the at-fault driver's car insurance policy.

Collisions occurring in Washington have to be filed within three (3) years; whereas collisions occurring in Idaho have to be filed within two (2) years.
