[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child used to work in traffic safety as an engineer. The most culpable were the cyclists who don’t want to slow down and lose momentum. Pedestrians need to assume the worst. Assume that the drivers do not see you. No one is out there trying to run anyone over. [b]It’s usually a visibility issue[/b]. Has anyone noticed that work crews must wear their vests? It makes a difference. [/quote] No it isn't. It is a distracted driving issue. Drivers hit things with their cars when they are not using appropriate caution and paying sufficient attention.[/quote] Before mobile phones, pedestrians got killed. It still comes down to drivers hitting things that they did not know were there. [/quote] I never said cell phones. I said distracted driving, which can happen for a lot of reasons. They did not know they were there because they were distracted.[/quote]
