Frequently Asked Questions
Why is distracted driving a serious risk for pedestrians?
A driver looking at a phone or otherwise not watching the road can miss a person crossing until it's too late to stop, especially at intersections where pedestrians have the right of way.
What should someone do immediately after being struck by a vehicle?
Call 911, avoid moving an injured person unless there's immediate danger, and wait for paramedics. Get contact information from the driver and any witnesses if possible.
Where do most vehicle-pedestrian crashes happen?
Many occur at or near intersections and crosswalks, where turning vehicles and crossing pedestrians can be in the same space at the same time.
