Well, let's see... a blind walker or a driver with a car as a lethal weapon. When a car reaches an intersection and a blind pedestrian is there, ANY pedestrian already on the road or crosswalk has complete right of way---especially a blind person. IF the blind person is waiting on a corner, is not stepping off the curb, SLOW down just in case the person steps onto the roadway.
In the state of Wisconsin, pedestrians always have the right of way.
Pedestrians always have the right of way in every state. Just run over someone and you will find out very quickly. The pedestrian may receive a ticket for jaywalking but you for sure had better not hit them.
That depends entirely on where they are, the traffic situation, the presence of crossings, the country's laws, etc.
There is no rule that always applies. Pedestrian
In California, any driver who does not yield the right-of-way to a blind pedestrian can be charged with a misdemeanor.
Crossing a road without a crosswalk is dangerous and illegal. If a pedestrian is knocked down at a non-residential area that does not have a crosswalk, the driver is not at fault.
A driver must yield the right of way to a pedestrian with a white cane or guide dog. Those are indications of a blind pedestrian.
In most states, it doesn't matter the reason a driver struck a pedestrian or if the pedestrian saw the vehicle prior to being in a position to be struck--the pedestrian always has the right-of-way so the driver is always at-fault.
the pedestrian has the right of way
Yes, but, the driver's right is limited with those rights to others
This depends on the layout of the warehouse or factory. For example if it was a designated crossing area for a pedestrian they would have right of way.

Do the right thing and pay for the damage you caused out of your own pocket.
Actually, I suppose that pedestrians are more vulnerable to danger and injury, than a driver in a protective car. And also, a driver in the car could injure a pedestrian, but the pedestrian can't injure you. However, at traffic lights you have you're own fair turn to cross the intersection and travel across.
