Pedestrian Accidents in Phoenix
Pedestrians have very little physical protection from the impact of a car crash. To make matters worse, on top of the body’s impact with the car, there is usually the additional trauma of the result of the victim hitting against a curb, the asphalt, or any fixed object.
Shattered bones, traumatic brain injuries, massive internal hemorrhaging, and damage to the spinal cord are frequently occurring injuries in these types of accidents. The medical bills associated with these injuries will quickly reach into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
