"We are seeing nationally, pedestrian deaths are the highest they've been since 1981," said Jonathan Adkins, the CEO of the Governors Highway Safety Association. "That's kind of crazy because our vehicles are safer. We've made a lot of improvements in technology, but yet we're killing more and more people just because they're going out for a walk."
Alameda County Supervisor Wilma Chan was killed after being struck by a car while walking her dog in November 2021. The city later identified that intersection as a high-injury intersection.
