Pedestrian Accidents in California
There are many dangers that pedestrians face when crossing the street. In California, pedestrian accidents are all too common. According to reports provided by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 7485 pedestrian fatalities were reported in the United States in 2021. Of those fatalities, 958 occurred in California – more than any other state.
There are a number of reasons why pedestrian accidents are so common in California. First, the state has a large population and a lot of traffic. Second, many Californians live in urban areas where there are more pedestrians and less space for them to walk safely. Third, California has a lot of tourists who may not be familiar with the area and may not know how to safely cross the street.
To help keep pedestrians safe, it is important to be aware of your surroundings and follow all traffic laws. Pedestrians should always use marked crosswalks and obey traffic signals. They should also make sure that they are visible to drivers by wearing brightly colored clothing or using a flashlight at night. By taking these precautions, pedestrians can help reduce their risk of being involved in an accident.
