Therefore‚ there will be rooms for improvement. Observing the pedestrian behaviour in Coburg‚ the safety issues are my main concerns.

traffic light was malfunctioning. The pedestrians didn’t know they were putting themselves in harm’s way. So while I ultimately agree the car should be programmed to hit the barrier‚ I don’t think the hedonistic utilitarianism view is enough to justify it. Too many variables are present to use such an elementary train of thought. Another reason I think the car should hit the barrier is because I believe motor transportation should always be second to pedestrians. By purchasing a car‚ I believe drivers

Also‚ by helping the pedestrian cross properly‚ the road is clear for the drivers. The drivers can continue driving safely‚ without any confusions or distractions caused by pedestrians. Next‚ they can also help bikers‚ and allow the bikes to cross carefully. Bikers are just as important as anyone else‚ and they must be watched out for carefully. Crossing

Central Business District A problem in the world’s most CBDs is that the volume of traffic caused air pollution and was a danger to health and safety of shoppers and other pedestrians. Fortunately this problem does not apply to Vienna anymore. In the past it used to be a problem in Vienna too but the government acted fast and used certain precautions to end this problem. What they did was that they placed many different types of public transport like buses‚ trams and trains. These encouraged people

CHAPTER I THE PROJECT AND ITS SETTINGS Introduction The use of audible traffic lights at pedestrian crossing is to assist the vision less and disabled persons across any intersections. When reaching a pedestrian crossing‚ and knowing which direction to cross‚ the visionless and disabled persons must then know when to begin their crossing after hearing the audible traffic light’s signal sound. Since the traffic lights and the audible device are wired in parallel‚ as soon as the traffic

The physical action of the pedestrian includes detection of spaces and formulation of movement. The pedestrian react to the surroundings through the physical actions and obtains sensory input in a repeated loop. By these dealings the pedestrian obtain
