DriverZ, a recognized leader in driver education, echoes concerns over the recent surge in pedestrian fatalities in the United States. With pedestrian deaths reaching a 41-year high nationwide and Texas ranking among the top 10 most dangerous states for pedestrians, DriverZ calls for increased emphasis on new driver training and highlights its commitment to promoting pedestrian safety.
As reported by Spectrum News 1, according to an analysis by the Governors Highway Safety Association, pedestrian fatalities in traffic crashes soared to a record-breaking 41-year high in 2022, with a projected 7,508 pedestrian deaths reported across 49 states and Washington, D.C. This alarming trend demands immediate attention and action to ensure the safety of all road users. Additionally, a study conducted by the Ohio-based Fitch Law Firm, and reported by the Houston Chronicle, reveals a distressing 40 percent increase in pedestrian deaths over the past decade in Texas, highlighting the urgent need for comprehensive measures to address this issue.
