Ogden, UT (March 08, 2021) – A pedestrian was hit by a car on Sunday, March 7th in the city of Ogden.
An official from the Ogden Police Department reported that at about 9:00 p.m., the woman was crossing the intersection of 30th Street and Jefferson Avenue from south to north when she was hit by a westbound vehicle.
The pedestrian was transported via ambulance to a local hospital in serious condition.
The driver of the vehicle remained at the scene and has cooperated with the police.
Driver impairment is not believed to be a factor.
Our thoughts are with the injured victim and their family at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
If you have sustained an injury in a Utah pedestrian accident, you will quickly receive a call from the insurance company of the driver involved in your accident, hoping to get you to provide a recorded statement. You are not required to oblige, nor is it recommended that you do so if you have not yet sought the counsel of a personal injury attorney.
It is always a wise move to meet with an attorney before giving a statement to anyone. This is due to the fact that insurance carriers actually teach their adjusters to ask certain questions worded in such a way as to bring down the value of your claim as much as possible. An experienced Utah pedestrian accident attorney can stop these adjusters from taking advantage of you.
When victims are injured in accidents caused by the negligence of other drivers, it is crucial that they seek legal guidance from a skilled and knowledgeable pedestrian accident attorney in Salt Lake City as soon as possible.
When victims are injured during car accidents through no fault of their own, they are often able to obtain compensation from wrongdoers to alleviate the financial costs they face for medical treatment, lost wages, property repairs, and a variety of other economic and non-economic damages.
