Pedestrians are one of the groups at higher risk of traffic accidents. Although pedestrian collisions can be more severe on roads outside the city due to higher vehicle speeds, most of these accidents occur on urban roads. This is due to several factors:

- In cities, there are more obstacles that can hinder the visibility of pedestrians for drivers, such as parked vehicles or urban elements.
- Pedestrians often cross in unauthorized places or without following safety rules, such as crossing without using pedestrian crossings or when the traffic light is red.
- Drivers in urban areas must be especially careful, as there are more interactions with pedestrians, especially in areas with heavy pedestrian traffic, such as near schools or leisure areas.

For these reasons, it is crucial that both pedestrians and drivers take additional precautions on urban roads to reduce the risk of accidents.
