Have you been in a dangerous situation as or with a pedestrian?
State law requires pedestrians walking along the road to use sidewalks when available.
Pedestrians have the right of way in marked and unmarked crosswalks, meaning cars must yield for pedestrians, wherever they are in the crosswalk
Bicyclists can ride on sidewalks and in crosswalks but when doing so have the same responsibilities and rights as pedestrians.
When parking, make sure to choose a safe spot with good visibility. Avoid parking on curves and obstructing the view of oncoming traffic. Pedestrians or cyclists may have to maneuver around your vehicle. #DriveSafe #WatchForMeCT ... See MoreSee Less

Use caution crossing the road, no matter your age. Use marked crosswalks wherever possible. If you donβt see one, it's better to be safe and yield to traffic. Make sure there's a gap in traffic big enough for you to get across safely. #WatchForMeCT #PedestrianSafety #RoadSafety ... See MoreSee Less
