Pedestrian Safety

Pedestrian Safety is a Key Focus

Pedestrians are vulnerable road users. Whether walking for enjoyment, exercise, or engaged in work on the roadway, they need to be safe. Our goal is to increase driver awareness and education on pedestrian safety.

Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB)

RRFB Tips for pedestrians: Activate the signal by pushing the button. Wait for the lights to flash. Step to the curb and wait for traffic to stop. Cross the road while constantly monitoring traffic

RRFB Tips for Florida drivers: If you approach an RRFB and the lights are flashing, and a pedestrian is present, you must come to a complete stop, at the stop bar. Remain stopped until the pedestrians are across the roadway. You may proceed with caution after the pedestrians have cleared the roadway.

Drivers are a primary target of our messages. The bookmarks remind driver to “Watch for WALKERS!” They also include traffic safety tips and laws:
• STOP for pedestrians in the crosswalk or crossing at an intersection.
• Come to a COMPLETE STOP before turning right on red.
• LOOK in all directions before making a turn.

We also include some general safety tips for pedestrian of all ages, especially children to always “LOOK and LISTEN!”:
• STAY ON THE SIDEWALK.
• If no sidewalk, walk on the far left off the side of the road, facing traffic. 
• Cross the street ONLY at corners or CROSSWALKS.
• MAKE SURE DRIVERS SEE YOU.
• Never walk alone or at night.
• DEVICES DOWN, HEADS UP!
