• Use the sidewalk and avoid walking on the road as much as possible.
• If possible, walk in the opposite direction of traffic.
• If there's no crosswalk, cross the road near an intersection, such as a pedestrian crossing, T-junction, or roundabout, and wait for a safe moment when there's no traffic nearby.
• Do not cross the street diagonally; cross straight.
• Look left, then right, and then left again before stepping onto the road.
• When crossing, make eye contact with drivers before crossing the street to ensure they see you.
• If a car's windows are heavily tinted and you can't see the driver, give them a signal, or better yet, let the car pass by before you cross.
• Avoid distractions like using your phone or listening to music with headphones while crossing the street.

• If you are walking with children, supervise them when walking and hold their hands when crossing the street.
• Avoid walking on the street if you've consumed alcohol or drugs because you may not be able to maintain your balance properly, and if you're not conscious, you might start walking on the road.
