Miami, FL - Pedestrian Injured in Crash on NW 21st Street

Miami, FL (June 5, 2021) – Police and rescue workers responded to the scene of a pedestrian crash in Miami on Saturday morning. The accident took place just after 4:00 a.m. on Northwest 21st Avenue near the intersection with 36th Street.

According to a report from the scene, a man in his 30s was walking in or near the roadway when he was hit by a car. The man, who has not been identified, was rushed to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital where he currently remains with serious injuries. Police have not released any details on the cause or the events leading up to the crash. No additional injuries were reported and it is unclear if any charges are expected to be filed against the driver.

We would like to offer our thoughts and best wishes to this injured victim following this pedestrian crash in Miami.

Miami Pedestrian Accidents

According to statistics published by NHTSA, a Florida car accident occurs about once every 92 seconds. This means that all motorists on our roadways must remain vigilant at all times as a crash could occur at any moment. Speeding, reckless driving, impairment, distraction, and more can all lead to a serious accident that can leave victims suffering from catastrophic injuries. Unfortunately, these incidents take place multiple times per day in Florida.

If you have been injured in an accident, you should seek to protect your legal rights as soon as possible. Many victims of car accidents in Florida mistakenly believe that the insurance company has their best interest in mind and is working for them when it comes to receiving a settlement of their claim. The insurance company, however, is only concerned with settling the case as quickly and cheaply as they can. It is important to make sure you are represented by experienced counsel who can help you get the compensation that you deserve.

At Boone and Davis, we make sure that our clients are able to recover the maximum amount according to law. With over 40 years of experience helping accident victims, we know how to evaluate your claim so that you are not left with an inadequate settlement that does not fully compensate you for your pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bills. We will stand up for you when your back is against the wall. Our South Florida car accident attorneys are here to help during your time of greatest need.

We offer free consultations and case evaluations to all potential clients. We also work on a contingency fee basis for most accident cases so there is absolutely no obligation to you unless we obtain a recovery.
