Pedestrians (continued)


At night a highway construction worker was wearing an orange safety vest and assisting with the pullout of a company truck. He was directing the pullout of truck while standing in the northbound lane.

A pickup was southbound traveling at approximately 50 to 55 miles per hour. The left-front corner of the pickup impacted the worker while he was standing in the northbound lane.

Pedestrians are especially difficult to see at night. Slow down when passing vehicles that are broken down or may otherwise have pedestrians working on or near them.
