Unfortunately, people tend to overlook pedestrian accidents. There’s a common thought that either someone was in a crosswalk, or they were in the wrong. The law is more nuanced than that, though. It’s important there are thorough investigations to understand the full context of what happened in the accident and leading up to it. If nothing else, it’s important the evidence is able to tell the story when the victim isn’t around to speak for themselves. This can be a vital step in getting a family the closure they deserve.
