Augusta Georgia Car Accident Lawyers
Occupants of motor vehicles are protected by the structure and safety devices within the motor vehicle. Motorcycle helmets and protective gear offer protection to motorcyclists. However, joggers, bicyclists and other pedestrians have little to protect them from injuries if they are struck by a vehicle. As a result, pedestrian and bicycle accidents result in very serious injuries and fatalities. According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2007, 124,000 pedestrians, bicyclists and other people not in vehicles were injured in accidents in which they were hit by a car or other motor vehicle.
While pedestrians have little protection against other vehicles on the road, at the law office of Burnside Wall, they can trust that they will have full protection in the courtroom. To learn more or to determine if you have a case, contact the attorneys at our Richmond County law firm.
