About Parking Lot Pedestrian Accidents
Our Story
Parking Lot Pedestrian Accidents was founded in 2017 with a mission to shed light on an often-overlooked aspect of daily life: the safety of pedestrians in parking lots and surrounding areas. Our journey began out of a deep concern for the rising number of accidents involving pedestrians and vehicles in these spaces, which led us to identify a critical information gap.
The idea for this website stemmed from the belief that everyone has a right to safe access when entering or crossing parking lots, be it to shop, work, or simply park their vehicle. We set out to create a comprehensive resource hub that would educate both pedestrians and drivers on best practices to prevent accidents and promote safer behaviors.
