On March 20, 2013, the Denver Post had an article about the dramatic spike in hit and run accidents in Denver. According to the article, auto-pedestrian accidents are up 46% in 2013 over the previous 2 years in Denver. As resident of Capitol Hill, who walks around my neighborhood everyday, I see distracted drivers on their phones not paying attention to the dense urban streets around them. It only takes a moment of glancing at your phone to tragically change the life of another.
On a personal injury note, pedestrians injured by a driver can use their own auto insurance to help pay for their medical bills, lost wages and more. For more information on what to do after a pedestrian-auto accident watch this video on my website.
