However it also focuses on Traffic Signs and Road Situations outside Gibraltar, that as a driver you will come across most often. The most vulnerable road users are pedestrians, particularly children, older or disabled people, cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders. It is important that all road users are aware of The Code and are considerate towards each other. This applies to pedestrians as much as to drivers and riders. Many of the rules in the Code are legal requirements, and if you disobey these rules you are committing a criminal offence. You may be fined, or be disqualified from driving. In the most serious cases you may be sent to prison. Such rules are identified by the use of the words ‘MUST/ MUST NOT’.

  • A Review of Pedestrian Safety Research in the United States and Abroad
    A Review of Pedestrian Safety Research in the United States and Abroad PUBLICATION NO. FHWA-RD-03-042 JANUARY 2004 Research, Development, and Technology Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center 6300 Georgetown Pike McLean, VA 22101-2296 FOREWORD The overall goal of the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Research Program is to increase pedestrian and bicycle safety and mobility. From better crosswalks, sidewalks, and pedestrian technologies to expanded public educational and safety programs, the FHWA’s Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Research Program aims to pave the way for a more walkable future. The following document summarizes research on pedestrian safety in the United States with a focus on crash characteristics and the safety effects of various roadway features and traffic-control devices; it also considers pedestrian educational and enforcement programs. This pedestrian safety synthesis was part of a large FHWA study (“Evaluation of Pedestrian Facilities”) that has generated several other documents on the safety of pedestrian crossings and the effects of innovative engineering treatments on pedestrian safety. These other reports on pedestrian safety likely will interest readers. The results of this research will be useful to transportation researchers, engineers, planners, and safety professionals involved in improving pedestrian safety and mobility. Michael F.

They are eager to explore the world around them but usually have little idea of danger; their size is against them, restricting their view of oncoming traffic, and drivers and motorcyclists often don’t see them until too late; their inexperience means they frequently miscalculate traffic speed, distance and the time needed when crossing the road. We need to encourage their understanding of traffic in their environment, and help them develop their own risk assessment skills, building towards safer independent travel. This new edition of Pedestrian Skills is a classroom resource for 4-11 year olds to help develop their road safety understanding and skills, from very basic introductions to more complex topics, in a step by step approach. However, deskbound road safety education is not enough. It is vital that children get real life, hands- on experience out and about, both with their parents (hopefully setting a good example), and more importantly by structured practical activities with you, the teacher, and volunteers. Kerbcraft is run in many areas and provides opportunities for children to practise their crossing skills in a controlled environment, following good examples.
