Notice how many pedestrians are getting hit on pretty much a daily basis and a lot of the time more than one per day.

It's stunning how many people don't look both ways when crossing a road/street/path/trail.
Even when I ride my bike I've had countless people and kids walk in front of me without looking.

When I was a kid in the early public school grades the police would come into the school and teach us road safety.
I think the program was called Elmer The Safety Elephant.

It worked.
I always look both ways before crossing a street/road,etc and I don't start crossing until all vehicles have stopped.It's like an automatic reaction,every time.

I don't know if they still do this in schools but if they don't they should.
If you have kids drill it into their head what I just said,it might save their life or prevent them from being seriously injured.
