Pedestrian Safety

Millions of people rely on their own two feet for transportation instead of a car or bus every day. While these pedestrians and bikers make up a large group of commuters nationwide, they are still the minority and often have to contend with the larger, more formidable vehicle traffic on the roads at every turn.

There are traffic laws in place to ensure that both pedestrians and drivers are safe when they share the same roads, but these laws can only do so much. Each year, almost 80,000 pedestrians and bikers are injured in collisions with trucks, cars and motorcycles, and nearly 5,000 of these injuries prove to be fatal.

Pedestrian accidents are often so devastating because of the sheer impact of a car colliding with another person, who is unprotected by metal and glass. Even a slight tap can be brutal and result in broken bones, sprains, bruises, head trauma or even spinal injuries.
