What Pedestrians Should Know About Vehicle-Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians can suffer serious injuries when struck or run over by a vehicle because they have little protection from the force of an impact. Injuries may involve the legs, arms, head, or other parts of the body.
Drivers should remain alert when traveling through areas with businesses, homes, and pedestrian activity. Lower speeds can provide additional time to recognize a person in or near the roadway and respond safely.
Pedestrians can also improve their visibility by using marked crossings and staying in designated walking areas when available. At night or during poor visibility, reflective clothing or other visible materials can make it easier for drivers to see people near the road.
