A wreck on Rosemont Road near South Plaza trail has resulted in charges for a driver who struck a woman pushing a stroller. The Virginia Beach car accident happened when the woman pedestrian tried to cross Rosemont Road while pushing her four-month old baby in a stroller.
According to the Virginia Beach police accident report, the driver who hit the woman panicked when she saw the woman and the baby in the road, and hit the accelerator instead of the brakes. The driver was trying to turn right onto South Plaza when she hit the woman, then went on to crash into another vehicle.
The pedestrian suffered injuries to her legs, but her baby was spared any injury. Both were taken to a local hospital after being examined by paramedics.
The South Plaza and Rosemont Road intersection in Virginia Beach is known for being very busy. The driver was charged with failure to yield to a pedestrian.
Busy roads and intersections like this one are dangerous for pedestrians and bike riders, who often go unnoticed by drivers who are either paying attention only to other vehicles or who are distracted by something in their car. Pedestrian accidents are usually very serious – for the pedestrian – because they have no protection against the force of a vehicle striking them unexpectedly.
