Statistics
Explanation
Most pedestrians who are victims of accidents **have not committed any infractions**. This is due to several factors affecting both pedestrians and drivers:
- **Visibility and obstacles**: Accidents often occur in areas where drivers cannot see pedestrians well due to obstacles. This does not imply that pedestrians are committing infractions, but rather that environmental conditions hinder their visibility.
- **Pedestrian precautions**: Pedestrians are advised to cross at pedestrian crossings, wait on the sidewalk before crossing, and ensure no vehicles are coming before crossing. These actions show that pedestrians usually follow safety rules.
- **Driver responsibility**: Drivers must take measures to avoid accidents, such as driving at a moderate speed, paying attention to pedestrians, and not parking in places that obstruct pedestrian crossings. This indicates that many times accidents occur due to a lack of caution by drivers, not due to infractions by pedestrians.
- **Additional factors**: More vulnerable pedestrians, such as children and the elderly, may have additional difficulties, such as hearing or vision problems, which are not infractions but increase their risk of being hit.
In summary, although pedestrians must take precautions, most accidents are not due to infractions committed by them, but to other factors such as visibility, driver behavior, and environmental conditions.
