Protecting Pedestrians’ Rights on Missouri Roadways
Pedestrians are at risk of catastrophic injury or death if they are struck by negligent motorists. They have no protection from injury even in low-speed collisions in parking lots or driveways, and they may be faced with the need for ongoing medical treatment, assistive devices, or in-home care to lead a relatively normal life. Recovering full compensation from the at-fault party can give a pedestrian accident victim the chance to get the immediate, ongoing, and lifelong care he or she needs.
