New York City Pedestrians Facts And Tips

For Pedestrians

Fact: New York City leads the nation in the number of pedestrians killed in motor vehicle crashes. In 1998, one of every 10 pedestrians killed were under the influence of alcohol, other drugs (including prescription medication), or a combination of both.

Helpful Tips:

  •  Give yourself the most time to cross by waiting for a newly turned green or walk signal; 
  •  Stop and look in all directions before you cross. Keep scanning for vehicles as you cross; 
  •  Wear light colored clothing, use reflective material, carry a flashlight, hold your hand up high: do whatever it takes to make yourself more visible to drivers; 

 If you’re under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, including medication that makes you drowsy or dizzy, do not walk outside or make sure you go with somebody who is alert.
