Does the pedestrian have right of way crossing the street without a pedestrian crossing?
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.
You were a pedestrian and you were hit by a car you suffered injuries what to do?
If you were walking on the crosswalk and if you were not at fault, the driver should be responsible for covering the cost of damages... assuming you were not doing anything wrong like not walking on the crosswalk, or walking on the crosswalk when it says not to...

No pedestrian may unnecessarily stop or delay traffic while in a marked or unmarked crosswalk.(c) The driver of a vehicle approaching a pedestrian within any marked or unmarked crosswalk shall exercise all due care and shall reduce the speed of the vehicle or take any other action relating to the operation of the vehicle as necessary to safeguard the safety of the pedestrian.(d) Subdivision (b) does not relieve a driver of a vehicle from the duty of exercising due care for the safety of any pedestrian within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection.Amended Sec. 8, Ch. 833, Stats. 2000.

What is the pedestrians law.?
In the U.S. and Canada the law is: * Cross on crosswalks (if a car hits a pedestrian in a crosswalk that's not a good thing! * Most crosswalks have either an automatic signal to tell the pedestrian when to cross or there is a button close by the pedestrian can push to change the crosswalk signal. * If pedestrians J-walk (not in a crosswalk) then it's not the driver's fault in most cases. * If the weather is bad it's up to the pedestrian to be aware as much as the driver of vehicles and if you go out dressed in black or any dark clothing and think that you have are the cock of the J-walk think again! If you have dark clothing on and were not giving drivers a chance to see you then charges may not be laid against the driver and you're on your own. NOTE: A pedestrian is just as responsible for walking even across a crosswalk as a driver is seeing them.
What is California vehicle code 22526 b?
"A driver of a vehicle which is making a turn at an intersection who is facing a steady circular yellow or yellow arrow signal shall not enter the intersection or marked crosswalk unless there is sufficient space on the other side of the intersection or marked crosswalk to accommodate the vehicle driven without obstructing the through passage of vehicles from either side."
How close to a crosswalk can you park?
As long as you don't block the crosswalk, you should be good.Added: The law may (and probably does) vary from state to state but in some it is within 25 feet of the crosswalk. This distance allows for the potential pedestrian AND the oncoming driver to have the oppotunity to see one another clearly.
Who must yield when a driver is turning and a pedestrian is crossing without a traffic light?

California vehicle code 21453?
http://dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d11/vc21453.htm == 21453. (a) A driver facing a steady circular red signal alone shall stop at a marked limit line, but if none, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, if none, then before entering the intersection, and shall remain stopped until an indication to proceed is shown, except as provided in subdivision (b). (b) Except when a sign is in place prohibiting a turn, a driver, after stopping as required by subdivision (a), facing a steady circular red signal, may turn right, or turn left from a one-way street onto a one-way street. A driver making that turn shall yield the right-of-way to pedestrians lawfully within an adjacent crosswalk and to any vehicle that has approached or is approaching so closely as to constitute an immediate hazard to the driver, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to that vehicle until the driver can proceed with reasonable safety. (c) A driver facing a steady red arrow signal shall not enter the intersection to make the movement indicated by the arrow and, unless entering the intersection to make a movement permitted by another signal, shall stop at a clearly marked limit line, but if none, before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection, or if none, then before entering the intersection, and shall remain stopped until an indication permitting movement is shown. (d) Unless otherwise directed by a pedestrian control signal as provided in Section 21456, a pedestrian facing a steady circular red or red arrow signal shall not enter the roadway.

How close are you allowed to park from t intersection without traffic lights?
A driver must not stop in an intersection or on a road within 20 m of the nearest point of an intersecting road at an intersection with traffic lights. A driver must not stop in an intersection or on a road within 10 m from the nearest point of an intersecting road at an intersection without traffic lights.
Does a driver have to wait until a pedestrian is completely out of a crosswalk before proceeding?
In most States yes drivers are to yield to pedestrians until they have crossed the street. However so many drivers think as soon as the pedestrian passed them they can go, that is illegal because the law says ACROSS not Halfway across.
