Frequently Asked Questions
Who has the right of way at a crosswalk?
Pedestrians generally have the right of way once they have entered a marked or unmarked crosswalk, but drivers turning at intersections are required to yield to anyone already crossing before completing the turn.
How can drivers reduce the risk of hitting a pedestrian?
Coming to a full stop before turning, checking twice for people in or near crosswalks, and staying alert in areas near parking lots or driveways can help drivers spot pedestrians before it's too late.
What injuries are most common in pedestrian accidents?
Pedestrians struck by vehicles frequently suffer broken bones, head injuries, and internal injuries, since there is little to protect a person's body in a collision with a vehicle.
What are the most common causes of pedestrian accidents?
Distracted driving, failure to yield while turning, and poor visibility at intersections are frequently cited factors in crashes involving pedestrians.
