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.

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.
