At Haslerud Law Office, we always advocate for pedestrian safety on California’s roads. Unfortunately, pedestrian accidents continue to be a serious issue in many cities, including Redding. A recent incident near Churn Creek and Industrial Avenue has once again brought attention to the importance of both driver and pedestrian awareness.
The Incident
On a recent day, a man in his 30s was struck by a compact SUV while crossing at a marked crosswalk in Redding. According to the Redding Fire Department (RFD), the pedestrian suffered major injuries and was promptly hospitalized. Despite the severity of the accident, the victim was reportedly alert and able to inform emergency responders that he had been in the crosswalk at the time of the collision.
The RFD also noted that the pedestrian was wearing dark clothing, which may have been a factor in the incident, especially if visibility was poor. However, the Redding Police Department's traffic unit is still investigating the exact circumstances surrounding the collision.
