Children walking to school, elderly people attempting to cross a busy street, cyclists struck by reckless and distracted drivers – pedestrian accidents often cause injury to those who are most vulnerable and innocent.
Pedestrian and bicycle injuries can range from mild to severe and life-threatening, which typically depends on how fast the car was traveling. Leg injuries, such as torn cartilage and tendons, broken bones, or kneecap and femur fractures, are the most common injuries resulting from pedestrian accidents. Often, if a victim was struck hard enough to be thrown in the air, resulting injuries can be more severe and include brain damage, herniated discs, or lacerated internal organs.

On top of being a painful and frightening experience, animal attacks and dog bites can cause scarring, permanent disfigurement, and even life-threatening injuries. In the United States alone, hundred of thousands of people are bitten by dogs or other animals each year – and a majority of these victims are children.
Children can be permanently scarred, both physically and emotionally, as the result of a dog bite. Even if no serious physical damage occurred, the lifelong psychological trauma resulting from a fear of dogs can cause a lifetime of pain.
