How do you reduce pedestrian accidents?

Pedestrian accidents can be reduced by avoiding heavily populated areas on foot. The most pedestrian accidents occur in urban cities and heavily populated areas. Reducing foot-traffic can reduce your chances of being involved in a pedestrian accident. Additionally, do not cross the street when there is no crosswalk, and it is not your turn to cross the street. Just because you do not see a car coming your way when it is not your turn to cross, does not mean that there will not be a car coming up quickly. Cars are significantly faster than you are on foot, which makes them deadly and does not give them much response time to move out of the way if you are in the middle of the street. Also, avoid crossing the street where there is no cross walk. Do not cross. Walk to the nearest crosswalk. It is significantly more dangerous for you to cross an open road, even if it does not seem busy.
