Traffic generally don’t stop when I try to cross. Maybe a flashing light is needed.
As much as I’d hate to see yet another set of ugly traffic lights erected this might help , at least a bit.
I’ve been through there a million times and often people are lollygagging on the sidewalk looking like they intend to cross , but they don’t. Then there are people who just step out with no warning whatsoever.
Whatever happened here , I do hope for a speedy and complete recovery for the pedestrian involved.
SORRY to hear of this incident. Speedy recovery for the pedestrian. Putting the yellow pedestrian light can help. BUT SO MANY PEDASTRIANS DON’T PUSH THE BUTTON. Pushing it means they wait a few seconds, which stops the pedestrian from just walking out & IS THE 2ND WAY TO ALARM THE MOTORIST.
