Pedestrian Accident Claim Calculator
Pedestrian injuries are severe and fault is often contested — model both.
How this number is built
Doing it by hand
Step 1
Get the police report and the crossing signal timing if a signal was involved.
Step 2
Photograph sightlines, lighting and any obstruction from the driver's approach.
Step 3
Identify witnesses immediately; pedestrian cases turn on independent accounts.
Step 4
Check your own auto policy for underinsured motorist coverage — it applies even on foot.
Step 5
Expect a fault argument if the crossing was unmarked or mid-block.
What people ask next
Do I have a claim if I was jaywalking?
Often yes, reduced by your share of fault. Drivers still owe a duty of care, and few states bar recovery outright.
Does my auto insurance help if I was walking?
Frequently. Underinsured motorist and medical payments coverage commonly follow the person, not the vehicle.
