Florida is one of the most dangerous states for people on foot and on bikes. When a vehicle hits a person, there is nothing to absorb the impact, so injuries are often severe even at lower speeds. If that happened to you in or around Jacksonville, Duval County, a free review can help you understand your options before you talk to an insurance company.
What Matters in a Jacksonville Pedestrian Accident Claim
Severe injury risk
Head injuries, fractures, and internal injuries are common because there is no protection from the impact.
Your own PIP may help
In Florida, your own auto insurance can sometimes apply even when you were walking or biking.
Right-of-way facts
Where the crash happened and who had the right of way are details insurers fight over.
Where Jacksonville Crashes Happen
Most serious Jacksonville wrecks cluster on the big through-routes: I-95 and I-10 where they cross downtown, the I-295 beltway, and J. Turner Butler Boulevard (SR-202) heading toward the Beaches. Add the Fuller Warren, Hart, and Mathews bridges over the St. Johns River and heavy port truck traffic on I-95, and there are a lot of high-speed places for a crash to turn serious.
After a Serious Jacksonville Crash
People badly hurt in a Jacksonville crash are often taken to UF Health Jacksonville, the region's Level I trauma center. The ambulance run, the ER visit, and the follow-up scans build the medical record a claim leans on, so keep every bill and note even if you felt fine at the scene.
Handling a Jacksonville Injury Claim
Injury claims from a Jacksonville crash generally fall under Duval County and Florida's Fourth Judicial Circuit. You do not need to file anything to start. A free review just looks at what happened, the care you have had, and your options, with no cost and no obligation.
Florida Deadlines Can Apply
Florida sets time limits on injury claims. Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, many negligence claims have a limitations period (commonly two years for negligence), but the exact deadline depends on your case. Evidence from a Jacksonville pedestrian accident can disappear quickly, so it is best not to wait to get a review.
