Fatal pedestrian collisions frequently require evaluating California’s crosswalk right-of-way law. After investigation, officials will assess if the pedestrian’s location posed an unforeseen risk and if the driver took appropriate caution. This law mandates that drivers take measures to prevent hitting pedestrians in or near crosswalks. Given that the situation involves a vehicle moving at typical road speeds, the Basic Speed Law could also apply.
