What is the MISTAKE that most children make at the pedestrian crossing, “because no one taught them”. Titi Aur explains the phenomenon

Titi Aur, a specialist in defensive driving and road safety, warned – during a show from DC News – about the danger to which children and teenagers are exposed who do not take care of themselves when crossing pedestrians. They keep their eyes on the phone more and are guided only by the sound signals.

“I noticed a worrying phenomenon: at the traffic lights at the pedestrian crossing, there are those noises for red and green. I have noticed children, in general, who stand at traffic lights with their eyes on their phones, listen to the sound of red, and when the sound of green comes on, they also cross the street with their eyes on their phones. He doesn’t look at all”, the producer of the show began this dialogue.

“What they don’t know, because no one taught them, is that those sounds are for disabled people, for those who can’t see. People who can’t see also raise their cane to alert the driver even more. The blind man hears that the sound for the pass has been activated, but he can’t see whether a car is coming or not, so he raises his stick. Even the drivers don’t know the sign anymore. When a person raises his cane it means that he is blind and that person sometimes takes it upon himself to cross where there is no crosswalk. These young people instinctively felt that at the pedestrian crossing they can keep their eyes on their phones and when the light turns green they can pass, but without taking into account the fact that not all cars stop at red lights”said Titi Aur, to DC News.
