Pedestrians should face the fact that they can be at

Most drivers have encountered the man who saunterS
slowly across the street. just to annoy the motorist.
This same type of pedestrian will see a motOrist
approaching normal speed and step of the curb with
an expression of "hit me if you dare" The driver will
slam his brakes and sometimes hit parked
or lamp post in order to avoid striking the walker.
Another group of pedestrians involved in traffic fata

include elderly people who from rural in the
U.S. where life is much simpler and where they have
formed habit Of walking when and where they please
1t all adds up difficult problem but here three
ways to attack it:
First, must engage in a comprehensive program

ing public in safe pedestrian habits.
Second, should enact legislation calling for equal
standards of conduct for pedestrians and drivers.
Third, we must support strict enforcement of such
laws and demand that lawenforcement agencies issue
citations to pedestrians and that they be penazed
the same the motorist who violates the law.
Law enforcement will not be easy. for police
reluctant issue tickets to jaywalkers When motor
list is stopped the relationship between officer and
driver. Attempt to give pedestrian citation and
crowd Immediately gathers followed by general public
discussion to the pedestrians constitutional rights.

her feet in the air. This too much for the officer He

make il a msdemeanor for pedestrian to cross the
street in the path Of an approaching vehicle which is SO
close as to constitute an immediate hazard In this
