One in three traffic accidents involving pedestrians occurred at a pedestrian crossing.

      In Kirov Oblast, every third accident involving pedestrians occurred at a pedestrian crossing. Four people died in these accidents and 82 were injured.

      Most of the accidents happened in the evening — from 5 to 8 p.m. During this period visibility on the road decreases, and it is harder for drivers to notice a person in time, especially on unlit sections.

      Traffic police remind drivers that they are required to slow down before pedestrian crossings and yield to pedestrians. Violation of this rule carries a fine of up to 2,500 rubles.
