This stresses the importance <br />of slowing down traffic, providing midblock crossings, and enhanced <br />■ 2021 safety infrastructure at intersections, such as curb extensions, pedes- <br />■ 2020 trian refuge islands, and Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPI), which are a <br />traffic signal timing measure that gives people walking a three to seven <br />■ 2019 second head start over motor vehicles moving in the same direction. <br />■ 2018 Other top pedestrian collisions types include: <br />■ 2017 • Vehicle proceeding straight while pedestrian is crossing in a cross- <br />walk at an intersection <br />• Vehicle making a right turn while pedestrian is crossing in a cross- <br />walk at an intersection <br />• Vehicle proceeding straight while the pedestrian is crossing not in a <br />crosswalk <br />Chart 3-6 shows the total pedestrian collisions by day of week, reveal- <br />ing that Thursdays and Fridays tend to see slightly more pedestrian <br />collisions. Table 3-5 shows lighting conditions at the time of the colli- <br />sion. As may be expected, there are more collisions in daylight hours <br />due to more activity during the day, and a large percentage of colli- <br />sions occur under street lights at night. <br />Dark - No Street <br />5 <br />3 <br />4 <br />4 <br />2 <br />18 <br />Lights <br />Dark - Street <br />74 <br />53 <br />90 <br />66 <br />66 <br />349 <br />Lights <br />Dark - Street <br />Lights Not <br />1 <br />1 <br />Functioning <br />Daylight <br />107 <br />95 <br />114 <br />75 <br />90 <br />481 <br />Dusk - Dawn <br />10 <br />5 <br />8 <br />7 <br />12 <br />42 <br />Not Stated <br />4 <br />2 <br />3 <br />2 <br />4 <br />15 <br />Grand Total <br />200 <br />159 <br />219 <br />154 <br />174 <br />906 <br />Table 3-5: Light Conditions During the Pedestrian Collision <br />2% <br />z% <br />13% <br />■ Crossing In Crosswalk At <br />Intersection <br />37% ■ Crossing In Crosswalk Not At <br />Intersection <br />■ Crossing Not In Crosswalk <br />■ In Road <br />■ No Pedestrian Involved <br />■ Not In Road <br />■ Not Stated <br />27% <br />Chart 3-7 Pedestrian Action at Time of Collision <br />Chart 3-8 represents the movement of the automotive involved in the <br />pedestrian collision.
