Pedestrian Accident Facts

Statute of Limitations: In Florida, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, including pedestrian accidents, is 2 years from the date of the accident. If you do not file a lawsuit within this period, you may forfeit your ability to any recover damages.
Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents include: distracted driving, speeding, careless driving, bad weather, roadway design or defects, and driving under the influence
No-Fault Insurance Laws: Even for accidents involving pedestrians, Florida operates under a no-fault insurance system, which means that regardless of who is at fault for the accident, PIP Insurance serves as the primary insurance coverage for the first $10,000 of medical bills if the pedestrian has auto insurance, or lives with someone that has auto insurance.

Does PIP Insurance & UM Coverage Apply to Pedestrians Who Were Struck by a Vehicle?

Yes, if the injured pedestrian has car insurance, or lives with someone who has car insurance, they are entitled to Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage. PIP coverage serves as the primary insurance for the injured pedestrian’s first $10,000 of medical bills, per No-Fault laws.

In Florida, injured individuals using PIP coverage must seek medical treatment within 14 days of their accident. If treatment is not initiated within this 14 day timeframe, the injured pedestrian may forfeit their right to PIP coverage, which can negatively impact their recovery costs.

Additionally, if the injured pedestrian has Underinsured/Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage on their auto insurance policy, or if they live with someone who has UM on their auto insurance policy, the injured pedestrian may be entitled to additional insurance coverage that can provide them with compensation for their injuries, pain, and suffering. UM coverage can apply when the pedestrian was struck by someone who did not have coverage (they were uninsured), or does not have enough coverage (they were underinsured).
