Tips for the safety of pedestrians (Malayalam)
Safety of pedestrians is a big concern in India. With increasing modernisation, the number of vehicles on road is increasing. However, there are only a handful of people who are properly trained in driving. Here are some of the tips for walkers. Following points may be taken into account while walking as a pedestrian:
- Cross streets safely. Cross at a corner, using traffic signals and crosswalks. Try to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them. Do not assume that because you can see the driver, the driver can see you.
- Look left, right and left again when crossing, and keep looking as you cross. Walk, do not run, across the street.
- Walk on sidewalks or paths. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic as far to the left as possible.
- Be a safe pedestrian around cars. Watch for cars that are turning or backing up.
- Parents and kids should hold hands in parking lots.
