Pedestrian Safety Near Major Highways
Pedestrians face serious risks when traveling near high-speed roadways and highway entrances or exits. Limited visibility, fast-moving traffic, and changing lane patterns can make these areas particularly dangerous for people on foot.
Drivers should stay alert for pedestrians, especially near intersections and areas where people may cross the roadway. Pedestrians should use designated crossings where available and remain aware of approaching traffic before entering a road.
