Miami, FL – Pedestrian Injured in Car Accident on NW 11th St

Davie, FL – Two Injured in Pedestrian Crash on Davie Rd

Miami, FL (September 17, 2020) – An accident in the Overtown section of Miami sent one person to a local hospital with injuries. Just before 6 a.m., on September 17, medical personnel in Miami responded to the scene of an accident on Northwest 11th Street.

Reports from local news sources show that a male pedestrian was walking in the vicinity of Northwest 11th Street and Northwest 3rd Avenue when they were struck by a vehicle.

The man sustained injuries to his hips and lower extremities. The victim was rendered medical treatment at the scene by paramedics and transported to a local hospital for further treatment of injuries.

At this time, the police in Miami are investigating to determine what lead up to the collision.

Our thoughts are with the victim injured in this accident. We hope for his full recovery.

Pedestrian Accidents in Florida

Although the state of Florida has seen a 2.35% decrease in the number of pedestrians injured in accidents, these horrific incidents continue to leave nearly 8,000 people injured each year. The fact that pedestrians are unprotected in collisions means they are more likely to suffer traumatic injuries. Some of the most common injuries pedestrians are left with after motor vehicle accidents include:

  • Broken Bones
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries
  • Spinal Cord Injuries
  • Neck and Soft Tissue Injuries
  • And more

Pedestrians involved in accidents are at an increased risk of suffering fatal injuries due to the negligence of others. Victims who do survive often require extensive medical treatment. In fact, many pedestrians involved in accidents require medical attention immediately after their accidents. Having to undergo surgery and remain hospitalized for days on end can have a detrimental impact on a person’s life. The mental and emotional consequences of these accidents are overwhelming. Adding the physical and financial impacts victims face just makes the situation even more devastating.  When a victim is injured in an accident as a result of another driver’s actions, it is crucial that they seek legal guidance from a qualified and knowledgeable pedestrian accident attorney in Florida as soon as possible. Victims may be entitled to compensation to help alleviate the financial burdens they face moving forward.
