New York roads are famously dangerous for pedestrians. In fact, pedestrian-related accidents are on the rise. Statistics show that the biggest increase in pedestrian accidents and fatalities was in 2012, where the numbers more than doubled.
And since New York is home to many international and domestic travelers, they also become victims to the fast-moving roadways.
Injured pedestrians on New York’s dangerous roads are not limited to only its residents. International and domestic travelers are just as likely, if not more likely since they tend to travel more on foot, to be injured in pedestrian-related accidents on New York roads.
Similar to New York residents, injured travelers are entitled to the same legal rights when they are injured due to another party’s negligent actions. All pedestrian victims are entitled to compensation for their medical bills, loss of wages, pain and suffering, and any other expenses related to the accident.
