When pedestrians are hit by cars, the accidents are treated much like car on car auto accidents. In pedestrian accidents, because the injuries can be so severe, it is important to consider all possible insurance coverage issues to be sure that the injured person will be able to fully recover the from their injuries, be afforded compensation for their medical bills, and be able to seek legal justice for their pain and suffering.
