Enforcement needed to keep pedestrians safe: Haté
Increased fines are not enough to prevent careless drivers from endangering pedestrians, says Toronto personal injury lawyer Rohan Haté.
“I handle a lot of automobile-pedestrian accidents, and I find that the majority of those are caused by distracted driving,” says Haté, partner with McPhadden Samac Tuovi Haté LLP. “Many times pedestrians, even crossing on a crosswalk where they have the right-of-way, still end up getting hit if the driver is just not paying attention.
