Bus Pedestrian Collision in Capitol Hill Proves Fatal

There are a number of reasons why pedestrian accidents occur in the city of Seattle. Some of the most common reasons include:
- Driving under the influence
- Speeding
- Distracted driving
- Failure to yield the right-of-way to the pedestrian
- Failure to follow the rules of the road, such as stopping at a red light or stop sign
- Dangerous roadways and intersections
Injuries that occur as a result of pedestrian accidents can be devastating. Some of the common injuries include brain injuries, spinal cord trauma, broken bones, internal injuries, and neck injuries. Death is also a common consequence of pedestrian accidents. There is no question that when a vehicle strikes a pedestrian, it is the pedestrian who suffers significant injuries because of the lack of protection.
When a fatal pedestrian accident is caused by someone’s negligence or wrongdoing, loved ones of the victim can file a wrongful death claim against the at-fault party seeking compensation for damages such as medical expenses, funeral costs, and lost future income.
