Pedestrians Have
Some Rights, Too

The pedestrian his right too!
"If you're the person behind the
Wheel" pointed out Police Chief
Jack Shelter, "you must remember
that the person on foot has the
right t-of-way over automobiles IN
some situations. Yet accidents in
volving pedestrians account for
one-third of the traffic deaths in
this country every year."
The following reminders to driv-
ers about pedestrian right-of-way
was offered by Chief Shelter:
~ When pedestrians are cross
ing at unsignalized intersections,
drivers must give them the right
of-way if they are walking within
any crosswalk.
(2) When pedestrians are cross
ing at signalized intersections
they should obey the signals but
drivers turning right or left must
yield the right-of-way to pedes-
trians crossing on the "green" OF
walk" light.
(3) Pedestrians do not have the
ght-of-way between intersec-
tions. They should cross only al
corners.
a. Drivers should be alert fol
pedestrians crossing between in,
tersections, particularly at night
even though the walkers may be
| at fault.
