Pedestrian Accidents: What to Do If You Are in One
Many pedestrian-car accidents cause serious injury and fatalities. For victims, knowing what to do right after an accident can be paramount. If you are a pedestrian struck by a driver, and you can get out of the way of further injury, do so. If not, do your best to get medical care to your location.
Get as much information as possible from the location. Use your phone to record your location, especially demonstrating where on the road you are. Be sure to document any indication of road conditions or vehicle damage.
Get to the hospital immediately for help, even if you feel okay initially. It is very common for accidents to result in serious internal injuries that may not be obvious.
