Frequently Asked Questions
How can drivers lower the chance of hitting someone on foot?
Slowing down in areas where pedestrians may be present, staying alert at night, and avoiding distractions behind the wheel all help drivers spot people in or near the roadway in time to stop.
What injuries are common in pedestrian crashes?
Pedestrians struck by vehicles frequently suffer broken bones, head injuries, and internal injuries, since they have no protection from the impact.
Why are pedestrian crashes more severe at higher speeds?
The faster a vehicle is moving at the moment of impact, the less time a driver has to react and the harder the resulting collision, which raises the likelihood of serious or fatal injury to the person struck.
