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.
Personal shame, for one. The actual $$ cost will be determined by the court system where you live.

If a pedestrian enters a crosswalk with a red countdown clock at 3 seconds, they are still considered to be jaywalking. Pedestrians should only enter a crosswalk when the signal is green or walk, not during the countdown phase. It is important to follow traffic signals for pedestrian safety.
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...
