Pedestrian & bicycle accident lawyers
Struck as a pedestrian or cyclist? Talk to an experienced personal injury attorney — call 24/7.
Pedestrians and cyclists have no protection in a collision with a vehicle. Injuries are often severe — fractures, traumatic brain injury, spinal injury — and the legal issues overlap: who had the right of way, whether the driver was distracted, what the insurance covers.
Call Personal Injury Legal Centers and we will connect you with an attorney who handles these cases.

Questions
Pedestrian & cyclist questions
What to know about right-of-way, fault, and coverage.
The driver says I was jaywalking. Can I still recover?
Often, yes. Even if you were partly at fault, many states allow recovery. And drivers are required to avoid hitting pedestrians where possible — an attorney will investigate the actual facts.
I was hit by a driver with no insurance. What options do I have?
Your own auto policy may include uninsured-motorist coverage that applies when you were walking or riding. An attorney can review what’s available.
Do I need to file a police report?
If you are hurt, yes — and get medical care quickly. Both the police report and medical records matter for a later claim.
