Recent statistics show that #pedestrian-vehicle collisions are more likely to occur on #Fridays and #Saturdays. #dotherightthingandsavelives #beseenbesmartbesafe

Always be vigilant when crossing the #road and ensure that you are visible to motorists. Road safety is a shared #responsibility. #dotherightthingandsavelives #beseenbesmartbesafe

[National Road Safety Council of Namibia @nrsc__namibia]

Given the rise in the frequency of pedestrian-vehicle incidents, pedestrian safety in Namibia is becoming a growing concern.

We advise drivers to exercise caution and we urge pedestrians to dress brightly or use reflective gear to make themselves more visible to motorists.
