MAKE SURE YOU STAY SAFE THIS FALL. National Highway Transportation Safety Association. August 18, 2018. 1:29 P.M.
“Learn More about Pedestrian Safety.”
Be Visible
Make sure you’re visible to drivers at all times and make eye contact with them whenever possible. This is especially important at night, in low-light conditions such as dusk or dawn or in inclement weather.
According to NHTSA’s National Center for Statistics and Analysis, 32 percent of all pedestrian fatalities occur between 8 p.m. and 11:59 p.m.
Wear lightly colored or reflective clothing at night and brightly colored clothing during the day.
Stay in well-lit areas, especially when crossing the street. If possible, make eye contact with drivers in stopped vehicles to ensure they see you before you cross in front of them.
Stop…Think Before YOU Cross!
Stay Alert – Avoid Distractions
Distractions are everywhere today and becoming more and more difficult to avoid. Remember that, as a pedestrian, your eyes and ears are your best tools for keeping safe. Stay alert and watch out.
Put down your phone. Smartphones and handheld electronic devices are a daily part of life, but they take your eyes off of the road and distract your attention.
Don’t wear headphones. Your ears will tell you a lot about what is happening around you be sure to use them.
Follow the Rules
Know and follow all traffic rules, signs and signals. You need to be aware of the rules vehicles around you must follow to properly anticipate what drivers will do. This will help increase your safety.
Never assume a driver will give you the right of way. Make every effort to make eye contact with the driver of a stopped or approaching vehicle before entering the roadway.
Make Sure Driver’s Can See You
Walk in Safe Places
Use crosswalks when crossing the street. If a crosswalk is unavailable, be sure to find well-lit AREAS on the road to cross and wait for a long enough gap in traffic to make it safely across the street.
Stay on sidewalks whenever possible. If a sidewalk is not available, be sure to walk on the far side of the road facing traffic. This will help increase your visibility to drivers.
Avoid walking along highways or other roadways where pedestrians are prohibited.
Avoid Alcohol & Drug Consumption
Almost half of all traffic crashes resulting in pedestrian casualties involve alcohol & drug consumption. Surprisingly, 34 percent of that total was on the part of the pedestrian.
Alcohol impairs your decision-making skills, physical reflexes and other abilities just as much on your feet as it does behind the wheel.

Fallen Law Enforcement Conference
Oklahoma participated in the 2018 Click It or Ticket and both Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over mobilizations in July and August. The impaired driving mobilization efforts were conducted with the Oklahoma ENDUI tagline. That means that PACE TULSA AGS FOUNDATION efforts to expand Pedestrian Awareness Crosswalk Education in Public Transportation Policy are supported by statistical models that are working.
Oklahoma took part in three national mobilization efforts during FY 2018: Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over impaired driving mobilization in December 2017; Click It or Ticket seat belt mobilization in May; and Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over impaired driving mobilization in August/September 2018. Oklahoma did not meet the 2017 target for reducing the number of pedestrian fatalities. In response, Oklahoma initiated a request for 12 FY 2017 Funded Projects.[1]
The OHSO website contains a Mobilization Reporting System which allows agencies to submit participation activity electronically for each mobilization. For several years Oklahoma has employed Law Enforcement/Impaired Driving Liaisons with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol to aid in working with local agencies on their seat belt and impaired driving programs and encourage participation in these mobilizations.
Oklahoma did see success when reviewing the significant decreases in Core Outcomes for the following core measures:
[1]FATALITIES AND SERIOUS INJURIES
[2] UNRESTRAINED FATALITIES AND OPERATOR .08 OR MORE BAC FATALITIES
TAKE A LOOK AT THESE NUMBERS THAT ARE BEING REPORTED BY THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION FY2016 ANNUAL REPORT. Published by the Oklahoma Highway Safety Office. Well, Tulsa, Oklahoma is not New York City, but Pedestrians being distracted by texting and other tech device activities is not only affecting public safety in big cities, but in suburban neighborhoods and rural towns as well. For over 5 months at the intersection of 41st & Harvard, Becco Construction Contract workers and independent contractors have been busy upgrading a road surfacing project that was financed by a 2008 penny sales tax bond. This project is on schedule and expected to complete in another two weeks according to Becco Construction Contractor’s Company. PACE TULSA AGS Foundation, wrote an initial op ed story about the Ranch Acres Covenant Community. For more insight about this part of Tulsa, OK read our historical perspective about Ranch Acres.
Additionally, we feel that since the outcomes of this report are so promising that our 6 month study, An Examination: Intersection Awareness 31st & Harvard to 41st & Yale would mean further validation of these kind of foundation programs.
FATALITIES AND SERIOUS INJURIES
C-1 Number of Fatalities Target: To limit the projected increase in the number of traffic fatalities from 678 in 2013 to 694 in 2016. Oklahoma met its 2015 target to limit an expected increase in fatalities to no more than 712 in 2015, with 643 fatalities reported. While CY2016 results are not yet available, preliminary data to date indicates that fatalities in 2016 may remain fairly consistent with the 2015 results.
C-2 Number of Serious Injuries (State Data) Target: To limit the projected increase in the number of Serious Injuries in MVC from 14,734 in 2013 to 15,791 in 2016. Oklahoma met this target in CY2015, not only limiting but seeing a decrease in serious injuries from 14,732 to 14,266. Preliminary data for CY2016 is not available at this time. However, over the last five years, the number of serious injuries (incapacitating and non-incapacitating) has shown a downward trend, from a high of 16,190 in 2011 to 14,266 in 2015 (Oklahoma data).

THE REVOLUTIONARY POWER OF CHANGE: An Aware Pedestrian
Make Sure Driver’s Can See You
THE REVOLUTIONARY POWER OF CHANGE: An Aware Pedestrian
By Terence Morris. May 2, 2018. 7:51 P.M.
To test the validity of this definition of “An Aware Pedestrian,” one must examine its’ basic preconception’s:
A) This “Think-Tank,” is an Emerging Online World Community with which people can identify; and
B) In Communal Modular-ism their exists a nascent set of values definable by Self-constitution; Self-governance; and Self-economy. These nascent values help to shape form characteristic cognition. Areas of our brain are conditioned to behave according to training.
November 25th. #16Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. Become an “Aware Pedestrian.” Share experiences, Supporting “OTHERS,” affected, and “Chit-Chat,” intolerance against slander and disrespectful behaviors.
Self-Constitution, a philosophical book by Christine Korsgaard, in which the author sets out to demonstrate how people determine their own actions.
Self-Governance, a public policy analysis by Paul D. Miller that teaches, at root, a culture of public responsibility among a citizenry; that is, a widely accepted norm that citizens can and should take a role in public decision-making. People must believe that they have the right, duty, and ability to govern themselves. If they stop believing these things, self-government is effectively dead even if the rituals are still observed.
Self-Economy, by Keith J. Varadi, “The internet and it’s participants are the subjects of mimetic labels and mixed signals. People pass around hokey descriptors of broad and often boring fads. Objectives have become far more short-term; and critical discourse has all but disappeared.”
Goal-to-Purpose environments
The Goal-to-Purpose environment “guides social-uplift and human preservation activities in ways that have always formed, prerequisite obligations, in online communities throughout the world. Shared traits in modularity aid in shape-form polarization’s particularly assailant in human identities. These identity traits help define appropriate economic; political; religious; or social norms for group members in almost all global communities.”
Unilateral existentialist homogeneity
Defines how individual peoples’ lives provoke and stimulate thought. Usually “thought –movements” encourage building governance. Acknowledging protocol and rules, leads user sensitive information; financial records; conversation types; acceptable languages; permission levels; role and body designations, which are all programmatic experiences that never get considered by the participant. Information technology students and professionals design measurement tools and which store this critical information in encrypted databases and files.

Engagement in think-tanks
When volunteering to become a part of a forum; chat room; organizational; community; or company… how we engage is just as important as practicing “the engagement.” Acceptance and agreement is usually required. To enter a genomic collection environment demographic determinations made through application interactions; search history; and “habit gauging software applications over a series of clicks; periods in days; weeks; months or year “track” user traits and established “use- profiles” that will accurately allow content and marketing curation.
Participation in intellectual forums helps to establish and cultivate a community voice with independent preparation; creative thoughts; and technical support.
To ignite progress within progressive “media caveat instruments” influences host matriculation and simultaneously affects the direction of content curation within the marketing process.
The value gained from opinions is found within unique dialogue critique. Once polled about subject matters important to women, most felt in this order that: the economy at 17%, social security at 15%, health care at 14%, terrorism at 12%, the environment at 8%, education at 8%, immigration at 6%, and abortion at 5% were the challenges facing them in 2018.
Structured Voice-to forum environments
Core “belief sets.” An evaluative logic model in classic if-then dialectic briefly defines for the user participant an understandable “speak-thought” format. Today, certain assurance-level communication relationships exist to provide concise communicable logic. Enhanced participation, is much more difficult, without knowing the traits of the “user-participant” platform within “click-bank platforms.” To establish trust within “the global think-tank forum” users expect some type of universal accord. A “Horn-treatise” if you will. This symbolic preparation should also be defined in rules for mediation and resolution of questions and content inconsistencies.
The Think-Tank Theater Classic “speak and respond” conversation style
Classic “speak and respond” conversation style, is a” low-level” communication tool, which continues to be useful in “static” or” soft communication structured environments. People that really don’t want or expect “a whole-lot” of interaction from their participation in online forums, rarely acknowledge or even understand the depth of discovery being harnessed from these oblique representations of Rights of Speech forums. Therefore, great care must be exercised to protect these individuals from undo privacy intrusions or cybernetic obstructions. Gross violations of Rights of Speech and privacy Intrusions should always be at the front of any Think-Tank design.
People that want 100% immersion in all of the communities they join will become quickly impressed with the speed of user-to-learner transitions in PACE TULSA AGS FOUNDATION modular theoretical applications.

PEDESTRIANS
Who is a Pedestrian?
A pedestrian is a person traveling on foot, whether walking or running. In some communities, those traveling using tiny wheels such as roller skates, skateboards, and scooters, as well as wheelchair users are also included as pedestrians.
Pedestrian – Wikipedia. 2018
AWARENESS
What is a Pedestrian Sign?
