Many of Orlando’s pedestrian deaths are due to aberrant and risky behavior by drug users and the mentally ill. Blaming road design is a way of avoiding that issue and ignoring the area’s large homeless population. For most people, the hot climate deters much in the way of walking, with prioritizing traffic flow being essential to commerce and normal life. People want road improvements, not little used sidewalks and bike lanes.
Pedestrians today are part of problem ....I rarely see the use them use the crosswalks, or the intersections (which are also considered crosswalks) They just cross in the middle of the block
