Take Steps for Safety

Whenever you’re walking, keep these tips in mind:

•Whenever possible, cross the street at a designated crosswalk or intersection.

•Increase your visibility at night by carrying a flashlight and wearing retro-reflective clothing.

•It’s safest to walk on a sidewalk, but if one is not available, walk on the shoulder and face traffic.
