New York personal injury attorney, David Perecman isn't shocked about information that was just published by Elmhurt Hospital. The number of people that are struck by vehicles in some central and western sections of Queens may be on rise. The article explains:
• Last year, the number of people treated at the hospital for a pedestrian injury was the highest in almost a decade.
• In 2009, 256 people were treated at the hospital for a pedestrian injury. This means a jump of 16 people over the 2008 total, and 41 more injured pedestrians than the hospital admitted in 2007.
• Pedestrian injury is the top injury mechanism that brought patients into Elmhurst Hospital Center during 2008 and 2009.
• Vehicles striking pedestrians caused more than 30% of the injuries seen at Elmhurst Hospital, whereas the incidence ranges from 9-25% in other parts of New York City
