Accidents involving pedestrians are surprisingly common in Texas. According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), hundreds of people are killed each year in pedestrian accidents throughout the state. In addition, over 1,000 pedestrians are seriously injured.
Even a low-speed collision can cause severe harm to a pedestrian. Pedestrians are extremely vulnerable given that they have little or no protection from an impact. A study by the American Automobile Association (AAA) found that a pedestrian’s risk of severe injury is 25% when struck by a vehicle going 23 mph and jumps to 50% when the impact is with a vehicle going 31 mph.
