We don’t need to tell you that there’s a lot to love about Orange County and Los Angeles. Just consider some of the reasons over 10 million people choose to call the City of Angels home. There’s world class cuisine, breathtaking beaches, and arts representing the city’s colorful multicultural background. That’s just to name a few.   

But no matter what draws you to the cultural mecca of America, it’s a safe bet it isn’t the traffic situation. We have to get serious for a minute and point out that OC & LA could do much better when it comes to pedestrian safety. 

But we value action. In the spirit of “getting things done”, we’re excited to share with you our idea to optimize the safety of residential streets.

Pedestrian Statistics That Hit Close to Home

Before we dive into the solution, let’s take a closer look at the problem. You may want to sit down for these statistics. According to data collected by USC, over 14,230 pedestrians sustained injury from a vehicular accident between 2012 and 2016. While you’re collecting yourself, we’ll do the math for you. That’s an average of 3,557 incidents every year! Of these occurrences, an average of over 100 result in fatality on an annual basis. It’s a sad truth that has impacted us on a personal level and it could literally happen to anyone.

We’d love to drop you some good news right about now. Sadly, these fatalities have actually been on the rise, suffering a 55% increase over the last 5 years. We understand that these figures feel bleak, but before you succumb to learned helplessness, we have an idea that we think could turn things around in your neighborhood. 

We are proud to announce our Slow and Safe initiative and you can receive a Free Lawn Sign to be easily and tastefully displayed on your front lawn. This voluntary form of residential signage helps to keep passing motorists present and alert for children at play, wandering pets, and the kind of general foot traffic we should be able to enjoy worry-free in our neighborhoods.

In our experience, these signs contribute to a feeling of security that should be built into the foundation of every home. Of course, children will still need to be careful when at play, pets should still be secured, and we should all still be looking both ways before crossing the street, but a well-placed sign could be just the gentle reminder a hurrying motorist needs to stay aware of their surroundings.
