Struck Pedestrian #11: Eleventh fatality in GTA
All of a sudden, news of pedestrians being struck and killed is being becoming way too common. The latest incident happened at Broadview and Danforth earlier today. At this rate, we should expect 182 pedestrian fatalities in 2010. Are these unnecessary deaths due to lack of awareness on either the driver or pedestrian’s part? Is this reduced awareness due to today’s distracting technologies (cell phones, ipods, cars, etc.)? Are pedestrians becoming over-confident when crossing in front of/behind a moving vehicle?
