As personal injury lawyers in Mississippi we know that every year a large number of pedestrians are injured or killed by motor vehicles. Children are often at risk when they are going to and returning from schools. Statistics show that many of the auto/pedestrian accidents occur because the driver is:

• Failing to observe proper speed
• Failing to yield to pedestrians in designated cross walks
• Driving while intoxicated
• Driving while tired
• Driving while talking on a cell phone

By far the largest number of pedestrians are injured while crossing roads or walking at night.
