While legal liability typically falls on a drunk driver who strikes a pedestrian, it’s worth noting that alcohol use by pedestrians also increases the risk of an accident with a vehicle: the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that about 13% of fatal pedestrian accidents involved a driver with a BAC above .08, but up to 33% of these accidents involved a pedestrian with a BAC above .08. In some cases, an intoxicated pedestrian can be found entirely liable for a traffic accident while the driver may be compensated for damages sustained. When an intoxicated driver strikes a pedestrian, however, that driver must be held accountable under the law so that you can be compensated for all injuries and losses, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
