Pedestrian seriously injured in northwest collision

Our Traffic Section is investigating a collision that occurred on Monday evening that left a pedestrian in critical condition.

At approximately 6:35 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 10, 2025, it is believed that a 2015 Nissan Rogue, driven by a man in his 30s, was travelling eastbound on 16th Avenue at Second Street N.W. At the same time, a male pedestrian in his 30s was standing on the median at the crosswalk of 16th Avenue and Second Street N.W.

The Nissan Rogue entered the intersection on a green light, and at the same time, the pedestrian began to cross 16th Avenue, travelling south, and he was struck by the vehicle. The pedestrian was transported to the hospital in critical condition, where he remains. The driver of the vehicle remained at the scene and was not injured.

Speed and impairment on the part of the driver are not believed to be factors in the collision.

So far in 2025, there have been 435 traffic collisions involving pedestrians. Of these, 12 were fatal, and 405 resulted in injuries.

Road safety is everyone’s responsibility, and we continue to remind drivers and pedestrians to look out for one another to ensure everyone’s safety.
