Fatal Pedestrian Accident Statistics

Over the last 33 years, pedestrians have been a big part of traffic deaths. So, why? Because pedestrians are more likely to get hurt on the road than people in private cars.

Pedestrian deaths made up 16% of all traffic deaths in 2017, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Around 5,977 people were killed in traffic accidents across the country in 2017. About one death every 88 minutes or about one every two minutes.

In this case, the hit-and-run driver is responsible for leaving the victim hurt and then fleeing the scene. The suspect will likely face charges for crimes when they are caught.

Hit-and-run drivers are to blame for about one in five pedestrian accidents. In hit-and-run accidents, pedestrians make up 60% of the people who die and aren’t found.

Pedestrians are completely defenseless and vulnerable if someone else is careless in the way they are in the situations where most pedestrian accidents happen.
