San Antonio, TX – Man Struck & Killed by Vehicle on I-410 Access Rd

San Antonio, TX (July 28, 2020) – A pedestrian accident reported on Saturday evening claimed one man’s life in the San Antonio area. At approximately 9:30 p.m., on July 26, the San Antonio Police Department responded to the site of a crash on Interstate 410.

Reports provided by officers with the San Antonio Police Department show that a male in his 50s was walking near the eastbound lanes of Interstate 410 Access Road, near the intersection with Airlift Avenue, when he was struck by a vehicle. The man sustained fatal injuries in the accident and was immediately declared deceased at the scene. The driver of the vehicle remained at the site of the crash and cooperated with law enforcement. No one else involved in this crash was injured. At this time, the incident remains under investigation.

We would like to offer our condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time.

Fatal Pedestrian Accidents in Texas

San Antonio, TX – Man Struck & Killed by Vehicle on I-410 Access RdNo matter what method we choose for transportation, there is an inherent risk for travelers. This is particularly true when traveling on roads and sidewalks alongside reckless and negligent drivers. Over the past decade, we have seen a drastic increase in the number of people who choose to walk to their destinations. Although we like to believe traveling on foot is a safe and effective alternative to using motor vehicles, these people are not out are harm’s way. In fact, pedestrians are extremely vulnerable to the impact of motor vehicles in collisions.

More than 600 pedestrians lose their lives each year in traffic-related incidents across our state each year. Driver error and negligence are two of the most common factors in fatal pedestrian accidents across our state. We see far too many drivers on cellphones, texting, eating, or engaging in other activities that take their attention off the road. As a result, innocent victims lose their lives. When victims lose their lives in accidents, due to the reckless actions of motorists, it is imperative that their families reach out to a wrongful death attorney in Texas as soon as possible.
