Walking is great for your body…it can also be dangerous to
your health. In the Baltimore/DC area
pedestrian deaths are on the rise. About
one pedestrian a week is killed around our area. That does not begin to assess the number of
people who are injured by careless drivers and perhaps bicycle riders. Please be careful and keep your eyes in front
of you and not on your cell phone.
Did you know that men account for about two-thirds of
pedestrian deaths in the Baltimore area?
Where you walk is important as well.
Stay away from high traffic, high speed traffic areas if you possibly
can. Drivers need to slow down and
always watch at crossings even if pedestrians are moving in an unusual place on
the road.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a pedestrian
accident by a careless driver do not just brush it off. Even if you feel alright in the beginning - aches,
pains, and injuries may crop up in the aftermath. To protect yourself, contact Briana
Arnold. Attorney Arnold is a Baltimore
pedestrian accident attorney who will help you throughout the process. Give her a call at (410) 484-1400.
