In an ongoing effort to preserve quality of life, the City of Fort Lauderdale is aggressively tackling the challenge of pedestrian safety.
Did you know? On average, in this country a pedestrian is injured in a traffic collision every eight minutes. Most pedestrian injuries occur as a result of combined inattentiveness of motorists and the failure of pedestrians to use crosswalks. Additionally, the failure of both pedestrians and motorists to obey traffic signals can cause a fatality. By taking basic precautions and being aware of one’s surroundings, the likelihood of an unnecessary collision can be dramatically reduced.
