A Safe Road for Everyone

TIPS FOR PEDESTRIANS AND DRIVERS

TIPS FOR PEDESTRIANS Pedestrians should stay on sidewalks and in other areas designed for them. When those options aren’t available, walkers should stay as far left as possible, while those on wheels should stay to the right. You should also cross in designated crosswalks rather than sneaking across the middle of a street. Nobody should ever assume that a driver can see them. Try to make eye contact to register your presence to drivers before crossing. If walking at night, wear clothing that is easily visible from a distance. Distracted walking can be almost as dangerous as distracted driving, so staring at your phone or throwing in your headphones should be avoided. TIPS FOR DRIVERS The same rule of recognition applies to drivers. You need to look for pedestrians everywhere, especially where you least expect them. Take turns slowly, and try to spot people before they are too near your car. Always stop at crosswalks, and never attempt to pass, as the car in front of you may be stopped for a pedestrian you can’t see. School zones and residential areas tend to be filled with children who can pop out at a moment’s notice, so you need to exercise additional caution in these areas.

According to the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA), 2018 was a particularly dangerous year to be a pedestrian. It reports 6,227 pedestrian deaths on U.S. roads over the course of last year — the highest total in more than 25 years. It’s not hard to see why pedestrians hit by cars can suffer serious injuries or death. Compared to a person, a car is essentially a massive, fast-moving wrecking ball. Because of the irreparable damage that can result from these accidents, it’s vital that both pedestrians and drivers obey the rules of the road and watch out for one another.
