Yorba Linda sits at the eastern edge of Orange County, where Imperial Highway (SR-90), Yorba Linda Boulevard, Savi Ranch Parkway, Esperanza Road, Lakeview Avenue and Weir Canyon Road carry daily commuter traffic toward the 91, 57 and 55 freeways. Hillside neighborhoods, trails, Yorba Regional Park, shopping centers and the Yorba Linda Town Center mean people are on foot, on bikes and in cars across the city. Drivers who are rushing on Imperial Highway or Yorba Linda Boulevard, or distracted near schools, parks and shopping centers, can hit people in crosswalks, on sidewalks and in bike lanes.
Drivers Must Yield to Pedestrians
Under California Vehicle Code §21950, drivers must yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing in a marked crosswalk, or in an unmarked crosswalk at an intersection. Pedestrians also must use reasonable care, and shared fault can reduce a claim under California’s comparative negligence rules. See our Orange County pedestrian accident guide and bicycle accident guide.
What to Do After a Pedestrian or Bicycle Crash in Yorba Linda
- Call 911 and get medical care, even if you feel okay. Head, neck and back injuries can show up later.
- Photograph the crosswalk, signals, signs, the vehicle and your injuries.
- Get witness names and look for nearby cameras.
- If it was a hit-and-run, report it to police right away. Your own insurance may still help.
- Do not give a recorded statement to an insurer before getting advice.
- Call us for a free consultation: (844) 475-9529.
What Your Claim May Include
Depending on your case, compensation can include medical bills, future care, lost income, pain and suffering and other losses. No result can be guaranteed.
Deadlines
Most injury lawsuits in California must be filed within two years (Code of Civil Procedure §335.1). Claims against a public entity generally must be presented within six months (Government Code §911.2). See our statute of limitations guide.
