Staying Safe as a Pedestrian: Be Seen, Stay Alert

Pedestrian accidents often happen quickly and unexpectedly, especially during nighttime hours when visibility is low. To reduce the risk of being struck, pedestrians should always cross at designated intersections, wear reflective or light-colored clothing, and avoid distractions such as mobile phones while walking near traffic.

Drivers must also do their part, by slowing down in high-foot-traffic areas, staying vigilant, and always yielding the right-of-way to pedestrians in crosswalks. Together, these simple actions can help prevent tragedies on our roads.
