Materials for Hispanic Pedestrians and Bicyclists

Hispanic Pedestrian Flyer: Caution

The photograph shows a man who has just begun to cross a street in an urban residential area. He is walking in the crosswalk. A car is coming towards him from a perpendicular angle. Dotted lines that arrive at a body outline indicate where the paths of the car and the male pedestrian would meet if they continue on their present paths. The text reads: Did you know? Even if you feel confident crossing the streets around your home, don't assume that cars will stop for you. Use the crosswalks and look both ways.
