California sees hundreds of pedestrian injuries every year. Traffic accidents kill about 900 pedestrians in California every year. Wrecks claimed 893 lives last year, a 26 percent increase from the year before. Most accidents are caused by negligence or mistakes on the part of the drivers. 

U.S. car accidents are predominantly caused by negligent driving. Driving negligently can be caused by many factors, including distracted driving, texting while driving, fatigue, and intoxication. Pedestrian injuries are often more severe than those caused by physical collisions with vehicles. In most cases, pedestrians are completely unprotected.
