if you were going to dupont there's definitely public transport lol. eat the ticket, don't take your deathtrap next time

Have you considered not driving?

no qualms with that result. pedestrians don't have the absolute right of way.

if right of way, the driver is completely at fault, if jay-walking, depending on the actions of the driver and the circumstances, the pedestrian would have contributory negligence.

oh yeah if someone runs out into the street that's typically their fault. Basic negligence. A driver adhering to the law (not speeding, not texting [plaintiffs can request records of phone activity during the period in question to establish liability in discovery], etc.) obviously shouldn't face any legal liability.

At minimum there's tort liability there, even considering contributory negligence. Wasn't able to find anything on westlaw or lexis you're describing. Do you have a specific case/incident/statute in mind?

Interested to read how the courts don’t agree. A speeding vehicle hitting a pedestrian should be a very simple tort matter

The law very much agrees with you
