Pedestrian And Cyclist Injuries In Traffic Accidents
Pedestrians and bicyclists are often referred to as “non-occupants” in traffic accident statistic reports. This term sounds impersonal, but it is accurate. Children and adults who are walking down the street or are riding bicycles, skateboards or scooters are completely exposed to injury if they are struck by motor vehicles. While the occupants of a car or truck may walk away from an accident relatively unscathed, non-occupants like pedestrians and cyclists may sustain catastrophic or fatal injuries.
Many serious injuries may be sustained by a bicyclist or pedestrian in a traffic accident such as:
- Broken bones
- Severe contusions and abrasions
- Internal bleeding
- Organ damage
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic amputation
Is It Illegal to Walk On The Interstate In Georgia?
In Georgia, it is illegal to walk in or along interstates. Pedestrians have tried to cross interstates before and it has led to their deaths, so it is unwise to try crossing an interstate.
