As Georgia injury lawyers<\/a> we have represented many pedestrians who have been struck and seriously injured in automobiles accidents<\/a>. Just this year we represented a young mother who was crossing a roadway with her two young children when they were struck by a motorist who admitted that she never saw them prior to impact. Unfortunately one of the children died and she sustained serious injuries.
\nToday it was reported that a car hit an 18-year old pregnant girl and her 4-year old brother as they crossed Roswell Rd. in Atlanta. Unfortunately the child suffered serious head injuries. Allegedly they were not in a crosswalk but were in the turn lane when they were struck by the car. Georgia law makes it difficult to recover damages for your injuries if you are hit by an automobile and you are not in a crosswalk; however, a motorist still has a duty to maintain a proper lookout and see what can plainly be seen but someone exercising ordinary care. You cannot just run over pedestrians who are in the roadway if you could have and should have discovered their presence and taken evasive action. In any pedestrian case, it is crucial that a thorough investigation be done immediately to document the weather and lighting conditions existing at the time of the accident.
\nThe Georgia injury lawyers<\/a> at Finch McCranie, LLP<\/a> have over 40 years experience representing victims of automobile accidents<\/a> in serious injury or wrongful death<\/a> claims. If you have been injured or lost a loved one due to an automobile accident<\/a>, call us to learn about your rights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
