Enhancing traffic safety for pedestrians by Shawahid

One of the most common threats to traffic safety is pedestrian accidents because there is nothing to protect them when they collide, which makes them more at risk of death or serious injuries while walking on the road or crossing intersections. According to the CDC, pedestrians are one and a half times more likely than car passengers to be killed in a car accident, the least damage that can happen to pedestrians in accidents is broken bones

Therefore, Shawahid Industrial Roads Company has worked to increase awareness of pedestrian safety and has also manufactured and developed some traffic safety systems that play an essential role in protecting pedestrians and enhancing traffic safety

Pedestrian Traffic Safety Basics

We have collected the most important steps that maximize pedestrian safety and protection when using the roads so that they must follow them, and the rules of pedestrian traffic safety are as follows:

Pedestrian crosswalks while crossing

There are white-colored crosswalks that are specialized for pedestrians, in addition to the traffic lights. When traffic lights are turned on for pedestrians, they can use these crosswalks, and what increases traffic safety for pedestrians is crossing two people together. As well as walking on the pavement

Focus while crossing roads

One of the most common reasons that put pedestrians at risk while crossing the road is being distracted by phone, so you should focus on the road and cars while crossing, you can also wear reflective clothing to increase your visibility at night, enhancing traffic safety

Illuminated Traffic Light Poles and Luminous Tiles

The illuminated traffic light poles designed by Shawahid differ from others because these poles are linked to the Luminous Tiles, which is one of the modern traffic safety techniques where the poles and Tiles are linked by GPS when the traffic light turns red for cars, the color of the bulbs in the pedestrian crosswalks turns green, and the opposite.

The traffic light poles also play an effective role in traffic safety because they are fully equipped with high-quality LEDs. They are also durable and shock-absorbing

Flexible Post with a Reflective Base

Despite pedestrian crosswalks on the sides of the road or in part of the road being identified by white road markings, some drivers may be distracted and swerve on the road. Shawahid was able to solve this issue by manufacturing one of the traffic safety systems, which are flexible Posts that are characterized by their high flexibility and resistance to collision, If the car crashes into them, the driver pays attention and returns to his road, and is covered with reflective tapes that increase their visibility and thus protect pedestrians and achieve the required traffic safety

Flexible Post Signs with traffic safety

These signs are characterized by their different shapes, which have proven to be highly efficient in traffic safety. Some are used to warn of road repair areas, others are used to determine the speed limit or crossroads.

Shawahid has designed flexible signs that are used to indicate the existence of a pedestrian crossing area. Thus drivers give pedestrians priority to cross the road, thus enhancing traffic safety

The Importance of Traffic Safety Systems for Pedestrians

The traffic safety rules that we explained above are not enough to protect pedestrians from the risk of accidents, these rules are directed to pedestrians only, as they may be exposed to accidents despite their compliance with them, which may be due to driver distraction, lack of visibility at night, or anything else, so Shawahid Industrial Roads Company worked to design the best systems with the highest quality to ensure that pedestrians are fully protected and achieve traffic safety, you can order these systems through our website, or contact us on:
