Orlando sucks for pedestrians, but I feel an awareness of the problem is in its beginning stages.
We were named the #1 worst city for pedestrians. "Metro Orlando has the most dangerous streets for pedestrians among areas of at least a million residents."I think the best way to make yourself aware of pedestrians is to get out of your car and become one for a couple hours in a high traffic area. See how scary it really is. I did it and it truly does affect the way you view pedestrians while driving.
