WALKING NEAR TRAFFIC In walking near traffic, a little carelessness can kill you, warns the Public Safety Department. Alert pedestrians never step off a curb without taking a good look up and down the street, never walk against the lights at intersections, and never walk with their backs to oncoming traffic when walking along the open highway. Alert pedestrians stay alive. SAFETY ON THE HIGHWAY Safety on the highway depends a lot on common courtesy and common sense, declares the National Automobile Club.
