Commentary:
This accident is going to come down to where the pedestrian was standing in the road, and more importantly, where the driver was coming from before the accident. This is important because if they had left a bar, it is a very real possibility that the bar broke laws, and over-served them. If a bar serves a large quantity of drinks to somebody in a short amount of time, if at any point during their service they display signs of intoxication, and are served anyways, the bar could be liable for any accident their customer causes if alcohol is found to be a cause of the crash.
