Risk Factors for Pedestrians

Many pedestrian accidents happen in cities. According to the National Safety Council, approximately 86% of non-fatal pedestrian accidents occur in urban areas - compared to just 14% in rural settings. Additionally, the highest danger times are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights during the late evening. This could be partially attributed to higher numbers of drunk drivers on the road. Speeding is another large contributor to pedestrian injuries and fatalities. Whenever a driver is reckless, inattentive, under the influence, or otherwise irresponsible behind the wheel, pedestrians are put at risk.
