Are there remedies available for victims of car accidents involving pedestrians?

Yes. If you are a pedestrian and involved in a car accident involving a pedestrian that is caused by the car driver, the victims may have a couple of different remedies. A victim of such accident can make a claim against the car driver and the driver’s insurance company. If the car driver has purchased uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage on their own auto insurance policy, that coverage will also protect them in a car accident involving a pedestrian.
