Of course, it would be impossible to navigate many parts of our day-to-day lives without walking and crossing the streets. Even those of us who use cars every day have to travel on foot sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While reckless drivers are often the cause of most pedestrian accidents, there are safety measures that can be taken to avoid being involved in a traffic collision.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Use Sidewalks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It might seem obvious, but you should always walk on sidewalks if they\u2019re available. <a href=\"https:\/\/dklaw.com\/the-fine-print\/california-jaywalking-law\/\">Jaywalking<\/a> may save you time, but it could cost you your life.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re walking down a street without sidewalks, remember to walk in the opposite direction of the traffic, keeping as far to the left as possible and always walking with extreme caution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Look Both Ways Before Crossing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you cross a street, look for oncoming traffic. Although you have the right of way, a negligent driver may not see you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While crossing, keep your head up and your eyes open. Even if the road was safe to cross when you stepped off the curb, a car might come speeding around the corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to remain aware of your surroundings, even if you feel like you\u2019re not in a heavily trafficked area.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Wear Light or Reflective Clothing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While most&nbsp;pedestrian accidents&nbsp;are caused by reckless drivers, wearing dark clothes at night is a mistake far too many pedestrians make. Darkness reduces visibility for both drivers and pedestrians, which causes more traffic accidents to take place at night. To make it easier for drivers to see you, wear light or bright colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re walking along badly lit streets at night, buy a light-reflective jacket or vest. You can also turn your phone\u2019s flashlight feature on and keep it lit during your walk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Increasing your visibility at night with these pedestrian safety tips will significantly reduce your chances of injury or becoming involved in a pedestrian accident lawsuit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Stay Alert<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dklaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/headphone-biking-safety-1024x696.jpg\" alt=\"A pair of Apple airpods on a white background.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Distracted walking can be just as dangerous as distracted driving. Even if you walk the same way every day, you need to be alert and aware at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means no listening to music, no texting, and no social media scrolling. You should also avoid blocking your vision with your hair, hats, clothing, or dark glasses. Not only does blocking your vision make it less likely you\u2019ll spot an approaching car, but it\u2019s also a lot more difficult to make eye contact with drivers to ensure they see you before you cross.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Avoid Drugs and Alcohol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although walking while impaired might not be illegal like drunk driving, it can pose a serious risk to your safety and maybe even your life. Alcohol is a factor for the driver, pedestrian, or both in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov\/Api\/Public\/ViewPublication\/812681\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">47 percent<\/a>&nbsp;of car crashes resulting in the death of a pedestrian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using alcohol and drugs can seriously impair your judgment, reaction time, and motor skills. Prescription medications can also include side effects like drowsiness and loss of coordination. If you\u2019re taking a new medication, make sure to check the labels so you know what to expect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Cross at Designated Crosswalks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most pedestrian injuries occur when crossing at non-intersection locations. So, while it\u2019s tempting to cross mid-block, you should always stick to designated crosswalks if they\u2019re available. And, if there\u2019s a pedestrian signal, always watch and follow that rather than the traffic signals meant for cars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping to designated crosswalks makes it less likely that you\u2019ll be involved in an accident, as drivers often slow down for these as an automatic response, whether they see a pedestrian or not. If you are involved in an accident, it will help your case if your accident occurred at a designated crosswalk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there aren\u2019t any crosswalks provided, cross at the corner of the street to ensure you get a good view of the traffic coming from all directions before you step off the sidewalk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Watch Out for Parked Cars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dklaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/backing-out-of-driveway-accident-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"White sedan vehicle front light\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Cutting between two parked cars in the street or a parking lot might not seem like a big risk. However, if one of those cars is about to pull out, it could hit you in the process.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers won\u2019t be expecting pedestrians in a busy parking lot, so it\u2019s up to you to be extra alert. While most of the cars in the lot or along the street might be stationary, all it takes for one to start moving to cause an accident.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers often have a limited view when backing out of a parking space, as they\u2019re paying more attention to their steering and maneuvering than to pedestrians.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When walking near parked cars, pay extra attention, keep your distance, and always use parking lot walkways if they\u2019re provided.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Pedestrian Safety Your Priority<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of us don\u2019t give pedestrian safety a second thought in our everyday lives. After years of experience, we think we know how to handle ourselves when crossing roads and walking around.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, pedestrian accident statistics paint a different picture. While drivers need to take on most of the responsibility for these accidents, following these pedestrian tips can help you stay safe on the streets.\u00a0If you need to talk to a <a
