Pedestrians Can Suffer Fatal Injuries
According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, pedestrian safety is not what one may ordinarily assume it is; rather, the latest statistics paint a grim picture as follow:
- In 2018, 893 pedestrians were killed on California roadways, which is a 26% increase from 2014.
- In 2018, More than 14,000 pedestrians were injured
- Pedestrian deaths in California rose 26% percent between 2014 and 2018
- Almost 7,500 pedestrians have died in California between 2009 and 2018
- California’s pedestrian fatality rate is nearly 25% higher than the national average
- No state has more pedestrian deaths on its roadways than California
