What Happens When a Pedestrian Is at Fault for a Car Accident?

If you are involved in a car accident and it is determined that the pedestrian is at fault, there are certain things that will happen. First, the pedestrian’s insurance company will likely not cover any damages that they caused in the car accident. This means the walker will be responsible for paying for any damages to the other party’s vehicle, as well as any medical bills that they incur.
Additionally, the pedestrian may be sued by the other party for damages if permanent disfigurement or scarring occurs to the other party. If the pedestrian is found to be at fault for the accident, they may also face criminal charges.
