Explanation
As soon as you step out of your vehicle, you become a pedestrian - and as a pedestrian, it’s important to understand your rights and responsibilities. Always obey traffic laws and signals, use crosswalks when crossing the street, and stay alert for vehicles at all times. Before crossing, look carefully in both directions and watch for oncoming traffic from all angles. When pedestrian signals are present, wait for the “Walk” signal and never cross during the “Don’t Walk” phase.
Drivers also have a responsibility: you must slow down and be prepared to stop any time you see pedestrians walking on or crossing the roadway.
