Elizabeth, an aide to a Councilman in Alexandria Va, forwarded the following info about tightening up the law so it’s clearer for both pedestrians & drivers alike. [Note: This will not affect Shore Drive.]
The law that needs fine tuning is about pedestrian crosswalks on streets with the speed limit of 25mph or lower. Currently, it is somewhat confusing as drivers are to yield to pedestrians in cross walks.
The recommended changes will help make the law clearer.
