Pedestrian accidents can be extremely dangerous to the pedestrian because they are not protected by a helmet, seatbelt, or other protective gear. These accidents can do serious damage, and they can have devastating impacts. It is important for all drivers to remember to look out for pedestrians and for pedestrians to remember to remain cautious and vigilant when crossing streets.
