Follow the rules of the road and obey signs and signals.
Walk on sidewalks whenever they are available. If there is no sidewalk, walk facing traffic and as far from traffic as possible.
Cross streets at crosswalks or intersections, and use the crosswalk signal button if present. If a crosswalk or intersection is not available, locate a well-lit area where you have the best view of traffic. Wait for a gap in traffic that allows enough time to cross safely; continue watching for traffic as you cross.
Be conspicuous. Walk and run where drivers can see you; wear bright clothing. Make eye contact with drivers.
In the event of a crash...
Do not leave the scene of the crash. Check on all parties. Move to a safe location if possible. Call 911, especially if someone is injured. Even if no one is hurt, it is important to document and report crashes that involve bicycles and pedestrians.

Take pictures or video if possible.Save all documentation. This could include police reports, medical evaluations, and/or damage estimates. File an insurance claim and follow through.
