Frequently Asked Questions
How does a vehicle's speed affect a pedestrian's chance of surviving a crash?
Higher speeds give drivers less time to stop and increase the force of impact, which raises the likelihood of serious or fatal injury to a pedestrian.
Where do most pedestrian crashes happen?
Many occur at or near intersections and crosswalks, though a significant number also happen when a pedestrian crosses outside a marked crossing or in low-visibility conditions.
Are pedestrian crashes more common at night?
Reduced visibility after dark makes it harder for drivers to see people on foot, and a large share of pedestrian deaths nationally occur during nighttime hours.
What should a pedestrian do after being hit by a car?
If possible, call 911 immediately, stay at the scene, seek medical evaluation even if injuries seem minor, and try to get the names of any witnesses before they leave.
