Driver Safety Tips

Stay focused and alert for pedestrians.

Stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk when the pedestrian is crossing on your half of the road.

Stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk when the pedestrian is approaching from the opposite half of the roadway and is close enough to be in danger.

Stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk while executing a right or left turn and the pedestrian is in the half of the roadway that your vehicle is entering.

Look out for pedestrians that may be hidden from view by other vehicles that have stopped.

Be extra vigilant for pedestrians when driving at dawn or dusk.

Anticipate the difficulties of the elderly or young children who are crossing the street.

Obey all traffic laws and pay attention to traffic control signals and posted signs.
