Pedestrians are completely exposed when struck by passenger cars or commercial trucks. The impact routinely throws victims onto vehicle hoods or the roadway, resulting in traumatic brain injury, spinal damage, and complex fractures. SCV Law Firm, PLLC represents injured pedestrians, holding negligent, speeding, and distracted drivers fully accountable.
Pedestrian fatalities account for nearly 20 percent of Texas traffic deaths. Insurance adjusters frequently claim the pedestrian was jaywalking to invoke the Texas 51 percent comparative fault rule and deny claims. We gather surveillance video, signal timing logs, and witness statements to prove the driver failed to maintain a proper lookout.
High-density pedestrian areas in Downtown El Paso, near international border crossings, around UTEP, and along busy corridors like Mesa Street see frequent pedestrian strikes caused by turning vehicles.
