> And yet jaywalking accounts for the majority of pedestrian deaths, despite being a fraction of the number of crossings. This is simply false. While most pedestrian deaths happen on open roadways (with a 3:1 ratio), that isn't the same thing as jay walking. Indeed, most of these fatalities involve people on the side of the road, usually in the dark. Most pedestrian deaths happen at night. This is when it is easiest to see cars coming and avoid getting hit when crossing, (atleast if the cars have their lights on, which is frequently not the case). Most pedestrian deaths happen in areas with no sidewalk. If there's no sidewalk, then there isn't going to be a safe option to cross. https://www.ghsa.org/resources/news-releases/GHSA/Pedestrian-Spotlight-Full-Report23 https://www.ghsa.org/resources/news-releases/GHSA/Pedestrian...
