Frequently Asked Questions

Who has the right of way at a crosswalk?

Pedestrians crossing within a marked or unmarked crosswalk generally have the right of way, and drivers are required to stop or yield for them. Even so, pedestrians are encouraged to make eye contact with drivers and confirm it's safe before stepping out.

How can drivers lower the chance of striking someone on foot?

Slowing down near intersections, scanning both sides of the road before turning, and avoiding distractions like phones can give drivers more time to spot someone crossing.

What injuries are commonly seen in pedestrian crashes?

Pedestrians hit by vehicles frequently suffer broken bones, head injuries, and internal injuries, since they have little protection compared to someone inside a car.

What typically causes these kinds of crashes?

Common factors include drivers failing to yield, speeding, poor visibility at night, and distracted driving, though the specific cause of any crash is determined only after investigators review the evidence.
