What Should Pedestrians Know About Road Safety?
Pedestrians can face greater risks when walking near roads because they have little physical protection from moving vehicles. Drivers may have difficulty seeing people near intersections, driveways, or areas with limited lighting.
Visibility is especially important after sunset or during poor weather. Wearing visible clothing and staying alert can help pedestrians make themselves easier for drivers to see.
Drivers should also watch carefully for people walking along or crossing roads. Reducing speed near pedestrian-heavy areas and checking carefully before turning can give drivers more time to react.
