Then there is the police superintendent who promotes high - vis, saying, «Pedestrians can reduce their risk by wearing light - coloured clothing and
establishing eye contact with drivers when crossing at crosswalks or intersections.»
As a pedestrian, you should always cross at intersections, stay in the crosswalk when crossing, stay on the sidewalk, obey walk signals, always be aware of your surroundings, make
eye contact with a driver before crossing the street, be aware of your surroundings, and be as visible as possible by wearing bright, reflective clothing at night.
Other suggestions include wearing bright colours and / or reflective clothing, making
eye contact with drivers (especially while crossing), and using a crosswalk when crossing the road.
If possible, make
an eye contact with the driver of the vehicle you overtake to ensure that he see you passing.
