Pedestrians have the same right to use the road as drivers. They are another component of traffic and must be respected, all the more so because they are the most vulnerable element and most in need of protection and respect from drivers. The violation most commonly committed by drivers that poses the greatest risk to pedestrians is failing to respect priority at pedestrian crossings. In situations where pedestrians have right of way, failing to respect that priority poses a serious danger to them, given their high level of vulnerability.
