Pedestrians and cyclists have zero protection when struck by a vehicle. Even at low speeds, the consequences can be catastrophic—broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, or death. In Los Angeles, where walkability is increasing and bike lanes are expanding, these accidents happen far too often.
At CaliCrash Connect, we advocate for the most vulnerable people on our roads. Whether you were crossing in a crosswalk, jogging on a sidewalk, or cycling in a dedicated bike lane, you have rights. Drivers have a legal duty to watch for pedestrians and cyclists, yield at crosswalks, maintain safe distances, and operate their vehicles responsibly.
California law is generally favorable to pedestrians and cyclists. Drivers must exercise due care to avoid collisions, and pedestrians have the right-of-way in crosswalks. However, insurance companies often try to shift blame to the victim—claiming you were jaywalking, wearing dark clothing, or riding unpredictably. We know how to counter these tactics.
We handle all types of pedestrian and bicycle accident cases: crosswalk accidents, hit-and-runs, dooring incidents, bike lane collisions, and crashes caused by road hazards or poor infrastructure. Our goal is to secure full compensation for your injuries and hold negligent parties accountable.
