How Can Drivers Help Protect Pedestrians?
Drivers should slow down when traveling through areas with frequent pedestrian activity. Staying alert near crosswalks, intersections, and businesses gives motorists more time to recognize people entering or crossing the roadway.
Motorists should yield to pedestrians when required and avoid distractions while driving. Extra caution is also helpful during periods of heavy traffic or reduced visibility.
Pedestrians can improve their safety by using designated crossings and remaining alert to approaching vehicles. Making eye contact with drivers when possible can also help confirm that a vehicle has noticed them.
