In this paper, we consider the pedal curves of the mixed-type curves in the Lorentz–Minkowski plane R12. The pedal curve is always given by the pseudo-orthogonal projection of a fixed point on the tangent lines of the base curve. For a mixed-type curve, the pedal curve at lightlike points cannot always be defined. Herein, we investigate when the pedal curves of a mixed-type curve can be defined and define the pedal curves of the mixed-type curve using the lightcone frame. Then, we consider when the pedal curves of the mixed-type curve have singular points. We also investigate the relationship of the type of the points on the pedal curves and the type of the points on the base curve.
