Protecting the Rights of Injured Walkers and Cyclists Across the Magic Valley
Every day, people across Twin Falls, Burley, Jerome, and surrounding towns walk, jog, or bike through their neighborhoods, to work, or around local parks. But when drivers fail to pay attention or follow the rules of the road, pedestrians and cyclists are often the ones who suffer life-altering injuries. If you were hit by a car while walking or biking in the Magic Valley, you may be entitled to significant compensation. At Litster Frost Injury Lawyers, we fight for those injured in crosswalks, on sidewalks, near intersections, and along the side of rural roads throughout Southern Idaho.
Many of our clients were hit while doing everyday things—crossing Blue Lakes Boulevard, biking near Rock Creek Trail, or walking home after work near Falls Avenue. Whether your injuries happened in Twin Falls, Kimberly, Filer, Jerome, Rupert, or Burley, our legal team is ready to help you get the justice you deserve.
Walking should be safe in Idaho. When it’s not, we’re here to hold the negligent parties accountable.
Injured While Walking
Drivers have a legal duty to yield to pedestrians and avoid collisions in marked or unmarked crosswalks. But distracted, speeding, or impaired drivers often cause devastating harm when they fail to notice someone crossing the street or walking on the shoulder.
Common pedestrian accident injuries include:
-
Broken bones and fractures
-
Spinal cord injuries
-
Traumatic brain injuries
-
Internal bleeding
-
Permanent disability or wrongful death
Pedestrian crashes can occur on busy streets like Addison Avenue or in small towns like Eden or Wendell. We investigate every detail—from traffic camera footage to eyewitness accounts—to build a strong case for your recovery. You may be entitled to damages for your medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and more.
If you were hit while walking at night, on a poorly marked road, or while working (such as making deliveries or doing utility work), we’ll explore all sources of compensation—including possible workers' compensation claims.
Injured While Biking
Cyclists have the same rights to Idaho roads as motorists, yet many drivers fail to give them the space and respect they deserve. A door opening suddenly in downtown Twin Falls, a vehicle turning without checking for bikes in Burley, or a careless driver speeding along Pole Line Road can all result in serious bike accidents.
Common bicycle accident cases we handle:
-
Cars cutting off bikes in traffic or intersections
-
Failure to yield when a cyclist has the right of way
-
Rear-end collisions with bikes riding on the shoulder
-
Children struck while biking in residential areas
Biking accidents can lead to concussions, orthopedic injuries, road rash, and long-term physical trauma. We also see high medical costs and serious disruptions to work and daily life. Many bike crash victims are forced to miss work or school and deal with long-term recovery. We work to make sure you're compensated not just for the immediate aftermath—but for the future impact too.
Whether the crash happened near the Snake River Canyon Rim Trail, on the roads between Kimberly and Hansen, or in downtown Rupert, we understand the local roadways and how to hold drivers accountable in Idaho civil court.
