A message from the Washington Traffic Safety Commission
Nearly all of us walk daily. And around 75 percent of us drive sometimes. Whether we are walking or driving, there are things we can do to help each other out.
When you are on foot, do what you can to be noticed, and watch for cars. Cross the street where drivers expect you – at crosswalks and intersections. Seventy-two percent of pedestrian fatalities occur at non-intersections.
When you are driving, slow down and watch for pedestrians, who can be hard to see, especially this time of year when it is getting dark earlier.
Inevitably, people walking and people driving sometimes share the same space. When those two activities collide, pedestrians have the disadvantage. According to the WA Traffic Safety Commission, during the past seven years pedestrian fatalities in Washington have increased, culminating in 104 lives lost last year. We can change that - we all can do our part to prevent crashes and save lives. In the words of our brightest pedestrian, “Bee smart, bee safe, bee bright”.
