The crossing details matter.

Cincinnati pedestrian accident questions.
01Does a driver always have the right of way outside a crosswalk?
Right-of-way rules and duties depend on the situation. Crossing location does not eliminate the need to examine the driver’s conduct.
02What should my family preserve after a pedestrian collision?
Keep the report number, photographs, witness contacts, damaged belongings and treatment records.
03What if the driver left the scene?
Report the collision and preserve any identifying details. Available insurance may depend on the facts and policy language.
