Abstract:

In large cities, pedestrians account for 40% to 50% of traffic fatalities. In 2011, there were 4,432 pedestrian fatalities and about 69,000 injuries in the United States (NHTSA, 2013). Many of these incidents occur at crosswalks where drivers fail to comply with pedestrian crossing laws. One way of increasing driver compliance is to apply NHTSA’s high-visibility enforcement model (Click It or Ticket) to pedestrian right-of-way laws.
