EDUCATION NEEDED FOR PEDESTRIANS Pedestrians need a traffic-safety' program ' aimed at 'saving their rives, claims an article in the cur- rent issue of the Imperial Oil. Review. Entitled, "Are You Walking Yourself to Death.?" the article quotes the Dominion .Bureau. of Statistics as estimating -that one out of every four people killed on Canadian roads, is a pedestrian, According to- one 'traffic expert, "eight out of every 10 pedestrians are responsible for their own ac- cidents," and "two out of every three pedestrians killed have either been violating a traffic ordinance or committing an unsafe act." The article adds: "Nearly all pedestrians over 15 who are killed by motor ears are !individuals' who have never 'been licensed to drive." A Connecticut study of 1,100 pedestrian fatalities showed 95 per cent of them had been non- d rivers. • The article proposes four' ways to cut pedestrian 'deaths and in- juries: 1 More information on pedest- rian accidents as basis for ..a. stepped-up safety campaign. 2 Community programs of pe- destrian safety education, 3 More traffic safety devices which can save lives, 4 Stricter traffic laws for pe- destrians, mans, any pedestrians are ig- norant or :careless of traffic re- gulations; too many are 'unaware of the motorists' problems and limitations in handling vehicles."
