While no-fault coverage may payout to cover your basic damages such as medical care up to the policy limits and a portion of your missed pay, these may only represent a fraction of the damages a pedestrian suffers when struck by a car. This is why the law allows injured pedestrians to bring a suit against the at-fault driver to recover for pain and suffering and other losses not covered by no-fault.

New York State law generally gives victims three years to file a personal injury lawsuit under New York Civil Practice Law and Rules (CVP) §214. For wrongful death lawsuits, the deadline is generally two years under New York Estates, Powers, and Trust (EPT) §5-4.1. However, there may be exceptions to these statutes of limitations, especially when the victim is a minor or when the at-fault party is a government agency or municipality.
For example, if a government employee hits you while working, you may have as little as 90 days to notify the agency of your intent to seek damages for bodily injuries.
