On Feb 23 2015 a man was injured after being hit by a vehicle on Tates Creek Road near Armstrong Mill in Lexington Ky. The man suffered serious injuries and witnesses say that he was hit while walking on a busy road. The Lexington police spent several hours hours on Monday trying to put this tragedy together.
This accident caused traffic to be backed up for miles.
Witnesses say the speeding that takes place through this area is a known problem. Lexington Police are still interviewing witnesses and trying to figure out if the victim was in the roadway when he was hit among other details.
Hitting a pedestrian while driving a car not as uncommon as one might think.
According to statistics gathered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration over 60000 pedestrians were injured in traffic accidents in 2006. Hitting a pedestrian at a speed of over 30 miles per hour results in more serious injuries and fatalities. A driver can severely disable a pedestrian in a crash where the driver is traveling only 10 miles per hour.
Personal injury law covers situations in which a person’s body mind or emotions are hurt usually due to someone else’s negligence or carelessness.
