When it is pedestrian vs. driver in an accident you know who
comes out on the short end. What are the
protocols between the person or people who are walking and those behind the
wheel? In this cell phone era people are
constantly distracted so more accidents are occurring in the Baltimore area
between pedestrians and drivers.
Who has the right of way?
Many pedestrians think that because they are on foot they always have the
right-of-way. This is not necessarily
true. Naturally, you cannot just dart
out into the road when cars do not have a reasonable opportunity to stop. Sidewalks exist for a reason. They must be used whenever they are
available. When they are not you should
always walk on the left side facing traffic.
One thing is definite…accidents between pedestrians and
drivers will continue. If you feel that
you have a legitimate case against a driver, please contact Baltimore
pedestrian accident attorney Briana Arnold.
Attorney Arnold will carefully study your case and help you through the
process. Give her a call at (410)
484-1400 and make an appointment at her office located at 1777 Reisterstown Rd
in Pikesville, MD.
