If you can track down that car, make a report at the police station or at least advise the owner of the incident. If you can't track down the car, there's really nothing you can do, except hope that when it happens to you, the individual will stay on the scene and do the right thing.
of course...
Yes, you can get into trouble for almost hitting a pedestrian who jumped out of the way and hit your car with his walking stick when he did not get it out of the way. Pedestrians alwayshave the right of way. You failed to yield right of way. You get a ticket. You could face a lawsuit because you scared a pedestrian. Now, watch where you are going.
You should always yield to pedestrian traffic - stop the car while he crosses the street..

what is a "pedestrian car"
They get hit...
The opposite direction of the car
pedestrian always ;)
you could probably get charged with "reckless driving" along with hitting a pedestrian on a crosswalk. It depends if it was considered "hit and run", if it was your fine could probably go up by $100-$300.
car hitting a steady car
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.
