When a Pedestrian Is Struck Without Warning
Pedestrian accidents in Mobile can cause devastating injuries, as people on foot have little protection against moving vehicles. Crashes in crosswalks, intersections, and parking areas often result in broken bones, head injuries, and long-term physical limitations.
Alabama law allows injured pedestrians to pursue compensation when a driver’s negligence causes harm. However, the state’s strict contributory negligence rules can make these claims especially challenging, as insurers may try to deny recovery if they allege even minimal fault.
If you were hit by a vehicle while walking in Mobile, a Morgan & Morgan attorney can help protect your rights. Schedule a free, no-obligation case evaluation through our website. Let us fight for the compensation you need to recover and move forward.

Common Types of Pedestrian Accidents
The causes of pedestrian accidents vary, but most involve motor vehicles. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), an estimated 6,000 accidents in the U.S. resulted in pedestrian fatalities in 2016. Some common types of pedestrian accidents are:
- Distracted drivers. This is one of the primary causes of pedestrian accidents. Drivers distracted by anything such as texting or not paying attention to their surroundings can lead to an accident. Even glancing away from the road for a second can cause a serious accident.
- Speeding drivers can lose control of the vehicles, placing pedestrians at risk for an accident.
- Failing to yield the right of way is another common cause of pedestrian-related accidents. Even if you have a yield sign, it’s still a good idea to ensure the intersection is clear before crossing the street.
Other common causes of pedestrian accidents are failing to stop at a red light or stop sign. Not coming to a stop before turning right at a red light can also place pedestrians at risk. If you’re involved in a pedestrian accident, you may be eligible to receive compensation for your damages. Some types of compensation the attorneys at Morgan & Morgan have required for our clients include:
- Medical expenses
- Property damage
- Loss of current and even future income
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
Every pedestrian accident case is unique. You may be eligible for both economic and non-economic damages. Scheduling a consultation with a specialist from Morgan & Morgan is the first step towards potentially recovering your losses.
