The document discusses nonprofits' role in education and enforcement of pedestrian safety laws. It outlines plans for education campaigns around safe routes to school and daylight saving time. It also describes strategies for working with media and outlines procedures for pedestrian safety stings, including using one model pedestrian, spotters, a data recorder, and videographer. Partners in these stings include the City of Portland, Portland Police Bureau, Oregon Walks, and volunteers.

A clarified law, an opportunity to educate
Defines when a pedestrian is "crossing the roadway" and therefore given the legal right of way to cross. Once any part of the pedestrian's body -- such as a wheelchair, cane or crutch -- moves onto the roadway with the intent to proceed, the responsibility for a motorist to stop is triggered.
A pedestrian is still at fault is he/she "suddenly leaves a curb or other place of safety and moves into the path of a vehicle that is so close as to constitute an immediate hazard."

Steph Routh | Hopscotch Town | @stephrouth
Use “crash” not “accident.”
“No citations have been issued at this time.”
Use person-first language when possible
person walking/driving/cycling v. pedestrian/car/cyclist
