  • Speeding or reckless driving
  • Running stop signs or red lights
  • Failing to yield at crosswalks
  • Drunk or impaired driving
  • Backing up without looking in driveways or lots
  • Left-turn crashes at intersections

Frequently Asked Questions About Pedestrian Injury Claims

  • 1. Can I still file a claim if I wasn’t in a marked crosswalk?

    Yes. While marked crosswalks provide added protection under the law, pedestrians still have rights outside of them. Drivers are required to remain attentive and yield to pedestrians when appropriate, even at unmarked intersections or sidewalks.


    At Comras & Comras, we investigate the full context of your crash—where it happened, how fast the vehicle was going, whether the driver was distracted, and more. If you were walking legally and a driver failed to act responsibly, you may have a valid claim.

  • 2. What types of injuries are common in pedestrian accidents?

    Pedestrian crashes often result in traumatic injuries because victims are completely exposed. Common injuries include broken bones, head trauma, spinal cord injuries, facial fractures, internal bleeding, and soft tissue damage. Many require emergency surgery and lengthy recovery periods.


    Our legal team works closely with medical experts to ensure that every part of your injury—physical, emotional, and financial—is properly documented and accounted for. We don’t accept lowball offers or shortcuts. Your health and future come first.

  • 3. What if the driver fled the scene or wasn’t insured?

    Even in hit-and-run or uninsured driver cases, you may still be able to recover compensation. Florida law allows victims to pursue claims through their own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage, and we can help you explore other legal avenues to secure recovery.


    We’ve handled many cases involving unknown drivers, disputed insurance coverage, and complex liability questions. You won’t have to figure it out alone. Comras & Comras knows how to pursue compensation from every possible source.

  • 4. Do pedestrians always have the right of way in Florida?

    Not always—but drivers have the greater responsibility to avoid collisions. Pedestrians generally have the right of way in marked crosswalks, but every case depends on the facts. Even if a pedestrian wasn’t following the exact law, a driver may still share fault—or be entirely to blame.


    We analyze traffic laws, intersection controls, and driver behavior to determine liability. Our goal is to make sure negligent parties don’t escape responsibility by pointing fingers or distorting the facts.

  • 5. Why should I hire Comras & Comras for my pedestrian injury case?

    Because experience matters—especially when you’re up against insurers looking to minimize your claim. David A. Comras brings decades of trial experience to each case and a personal commitment to every client he serves. You won’t be passed off to staff or stuck waiting for answers—you’ll get direct, honest legal counsel from day one.
