    I was a pedestrian in a car accident in Queensland…

    It’s a common misconception that you need to be in a motor vehicle to make a claim for injuries sustained in a car accident in Queensland. This is not true, you can seek compensation for injuries sustained as a pedestrian in a car accident.

    Examples of where a pedestrian might be injured are:

    • A car failing to give way on a pedestrian crossing.
    • A car failing to give way to a pedestrian crossing a road.
    • A car or cars losing control and striking a pedestrian.
    • At home or the garage, reversing into a pedestrian.

    Given the nature of an accident where a pedestrian is struck by a motor vehicle, the victim often sustains serious and complex injuries and it is not unusual to suffer a trauma response. Being injured as a pedestrian can be frightening, traumatic and can have lifelong consequences. A lawyer will work with you through this uncertain time.
