What Should Pedestrians Know After a Crash in Flemington, NJ?

When a pedestrian is struck by a vehicle in New Jersey, they may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim against the at-fault driver, regardless of where the crash occurred. When injuries are severe, the financial consequences can be significant, including hospital stays, surgery, rehabilitation, and extended time away from work. New Jersey law allows injured pedestrians to seek compensation for these losses when another party's negligence was responsible.

Pedestrians hurt in these crashes can face some of the most serious injuries seen in any road accident. Route 31 through Flemington is a high-traffic commercial corridor that sees consistent vehicle movement throughout the day.
