This issue seems to be the crosswalk itself. People will make mistakes, but with this number of accidents, it appears to be another issue. Crosswalks are randomly placed throughout the city; just around a bend, or a hill, and on 60+ km/h roads. Drivers dont have enough time to react. To really fix this issue, is to remove the danger, and that is 1. the drivers, 2. the pedestrians, or 3. the random crosswalks. If NS does what most of the world does, this woundnt be such an issue. Make pedestrians cross at intersections. Simple.
