Over 150 pedestrians were injured or killed in crashes in Warwickshire over the last year, new figures have revealed.

Figures obtained by Accident Claims Advice found there have been 154 pedestrian injuries or fatalities in the county - 35 of those were in Warwick district.

In 2024/25, Warwickshire Police recorded 154 pedestrian injuries with seven fatalities, 42 'serious injuries' and 105 'slight injuries'.

Road Traffic Accident Manager for JF Law, Tracey Chick, said: "Each road traffic incident involving pedestrians represents a moment of distress and potential life-altering consequences for those involved.

"If you have been involved in an accident, your safety should be the immediate priority, before exchanging details with the other involved parties, and reporting the incident to the police."

In Warwickshire, the most pedestrian accidents occurred in Nuneaton and Bedworth, with 44 accidents, followed by Warwick, which saw 35 accidents take place.

Tracey Chick said: "The safety of pedestrians on the roads is paramount, yet poor driving can result in devastating consequences when someone is struck by a vehicle.

"Regarding eligibility to claim, it's vital to understand that every case is unique. Generally, if you've suffered injury due to the negligence of another driver, you may be eligible to pursue a claim for compensation. 

"We urge people to prioritise their own safety by using designated crossings, making eye contact with drivers, and avoiding distractions like mobile phones. Let's all commit to making our roads safer."
