Many people tend to think that if you are not in
your car then you are not covered by insurance.
This simply is not true. If you are a pedestrian
and you are hit by a car then the car insurance
does cover pedestrians. If you are a pedestrian
and you are injured after being hit by a car then
you deserve just as much compensation as if you
were in another car.

If you or a loved one is suffering from an injury
after getting hit by a car while walking then
take a look at our 5 steps on what to do if you
are in a pedestrian accident
Seek Help
Talk To Authorities
Seek witnesses
Call an Attorney
Keep Medical Records

If you have been hit by a car and they choose to
commit a hit and run, then you need to alert
someone for help immediately. If you are able to
then call 911. If not then yell for someone to do
so. If you were hit and the driver stayed then
encourage the driver to call for help if you are
not able.

Talk To Authorities
Once the authorities get there and after you have
had medical treatment, be sure to talk to the
police officer and let them know what happened to
you.
6
Seek witnesses
Maybe you were walking with a friend or you were
walking your normal routine to work, either way,
you should find someone who saw the incident to
help speak on your behalf.
7
Keep Medical Records
If you were seeking medical treatment after the
incident then keep records of everywhere you went
and whatever was said. Make sure you go to a
doctor immediately after the accident if the
ambulance does not take you to a hospital.
