Pedestrian Fatalities Mark Grim Milestone, Safety Group Projects in New Report
Traffic deaths involving pedestrians have dire consequences for those affected, Jonathan Adkins, the group’s CEO, said in a news release. “Every day, 20 people go for a walk and do not return home. These are people living their daily lives — commuting to and from school and work, picking up groceries, walking the dog, getting some exercise — who died suddenly and violently,” Adkins said in the release.
