00:00Accidents that were caught on camera, we will investigate and investigate.

00:05No one is safe, just caught on cam.

00:13Pedestrian accidents caught on cam in Quiapo, Manila.

00:18Four people were injured after a tricycle was hit.

00:22Here it is.

00:24A grandmother, her child, and two grandchildren were walking on the side of the road.

00:30Later, they were hit by a tricycle.

00:35Other victims were injured and fell.

00:38They were immediately taken to the hospital.

00:41The tricycle driver explained that he may have fallen asleep due to exhaustion.

00:49Another accident that was caught on cam.

00:52In Barangay Balagtas, Matangas City, also caught on cam.

00:56A man fell while he was crossing the road.

01:01Here it is, in the pool.

01:03In the video, two men were crossing the road.

01:05One man was able to cross the road, but the man in stripes was hit by a car.

01:12In the video, the victim was seen falling.

01:15He was immediately taken to the hospital.

01:20We will talk about pedestrian accidents.

01:23How can safety be ensured when walking or crossing the road?

01:28This morning, we have with us Jun Estalio.

01:31Sir Jun, welcome. Welcome to Unang Hirit.

01:34He is the Director of Road Safety Initiatives and Special Projects of the Philippine Advocates for Safety.

01:40Here is Sir Jun.

01:42Sir Jun, let's talk about the videos.

01:45In our first video, the whole family was walking.

01:48They were on the side.

01:49But not on the sidewalk.

01:51Because many of our sidewalks are not walkable, unfortunately.

01:54But in these situations, what should pedestrians do?

01:59For example, if there is no sidewalk, or if they are really on the side.

02:04Let's look at this, Ivan, the situation.

02:08As you can see, it is clear that there is a demarcation line.

02:12It really defines where people are walking and the traffic that vehicles should pass.

02:19These children who are walking, this is an early morning.

02:24And we can see in the video that the lighting is bright.

02:28There is adequate lighting.

02:30However, they are occupying the dangerous side of the road.

02:35So they should be on the safe side.

02:38Sidewalk.

02:39Sidewalk or walkway, as we call it.

02:41It was provided by the government.

02:45However, it is clear that a driver of a tricycle was reckless.

02:53Now, a way for pedestrians to walk properly and be safe,

03:00they should not occupy or be aware or conscious of the dangerous side of our road.

03:07They can walk in a column formation.

03:11They should not walk in a line formation that they can occupy.

03:17The space is wider.

03:19They will eat on the street.

03:21That's why it becomes a conflict of views.

03:25In this situation, the tricycle driver seems to be unfit to operate a motor vehicle.

03:32Because like what he admitted, he is sleeping.

03:35Yes, it is obvious that the road is wide.

03:38And the traffic is free-flowing.

03:40There is no side or overtake.

03:44That's why it is obviously dangerous.

03:48Sir Jun, let's go to the second video.

03:51There is no pedestrian lane for men to cross.

03:56Wait, which one is this?

04:00That one?

04:02The other one?

04:04Okay.

04:07That's it, Sir Jun.

04:09There is no pedestrian lane.

04:11What should be done?

04:12How can a person cross to avoid such an accident?

04:15We can see that this road is really restricted.

04:20There is no provided crosswalk.

04:25And it is clear that this is a construction area.

04:28The signage is clear on both sides.

04:31There is a barrier blocking it.

04:34In this vehicle, if we can see the complete video,

04:38the speeding was not managed.

04:41That's why the other one was saved but this one was hit.

04:45The intention is, for convenience,

04:49they really crossed the very restricted intersection.

04:54Actually, this is an intersection.

04:56There is another road here.

04:58But if he can see and recognize that this is a construction area,

05:02he should not cross there.

05:04So, in this case, it is okay to walk a little further

05:08but we should look for a safer place to cross.

05:11Yes.

05:12That's why they asked for assistance from the traffic enforcers present here.

05:16For example, you are a driver, a motorist.

05:20You will be surprised.

05:21You don't expect that someone will cross on that side of the road

05:25but suddenly, there is a pedestrian in front of you.

05:27You are not able to...

05:29It's too late.

05:30It's too late to brake.

05:31That's right, Ivan.

05:33But as you mentioned, he was not able to manage his speed.

05:36Maybe we should slow down on the intersections.

05:40This is really the obligation of a motorist to slow down

05:43if he can recognize that he is crossing a construction area.

05:47Sir Jun, there are opportunities.

05:49You are on the right side of the road

05:51but you are still going uphill.

05:55Just press the button.

05:56There you go.

05:58Is this the right way?

05:59Yes.

06:00There you go.

06:01You are on the right side of the road.

06:02There is a pedestrian.

06:03There are still opportunities.

06:04You are still going uphill.

06:08Okay.

06:09There you go.

06:12We can clearly see that there are crosswalks.

06:16We call them crosswalks.

06:17Sometimes, we call them zebra lanes or pedestrian crossings.

06:22People are in a safe place.

06:26They are in a safe place.

06:27But those who are crossing, crosswalks,

06:31they should be aware on both sides, left and right.

06:37The incoming traffic, especially this one,

06:40because you cannot easily detect its speed.

06:43Correct.

06:44It is clear that you are crossing here.

06:46But from your point of view,

06:47you should also look at what is on the right and what is on the left.

06:51With this vehicle,

06:52it is obvious that he can see someone crossing.

06:55He should have pulled over.

06:57He should have pulled over here

06:59because he saw three people crossing.

07:01This is a reminder to motorists, Sir Jun.

07:04Especially for pedestrian lanes,

07:07pedestrians are a priority.

07:09Correct. Pedestrians are a priority.

07:10Okay.

07:11Sometimes, the vehicle is in the way of pedestrians.

07:15Let's respect pedestrian lanes.

07:18They are there for a very specific purpose,

07:21for the safety of pedestrians.

07:23Isn't that right, Sir Jun?

07:24That's right.

07:25Okay.

07:26So, Kapuso, let's be careful on the road.

07:28Sir Jun pointed out that

07:30we should be aware of our surroundings.

07:34Left, right, front, back,

07:36and our entire surroundings.

07:38There are only two sides of our road.

07:40One is the safe side and the other is the sweet side.

07:43That's clear.

07:45Sir Jun Estalio,

07:46Director for Road Safety Initiatives and Special Projects

07:48of Philippine Advocates for Safety.

07:50Thank you very much.

07:51Thank you, Sir.

07:52And Kapuso,

07:53we will examine accidents and crimes.

07:56From now on, there will be no blind spots when it comes to safety.

07:59We will find out.

08:01Caught on Cam.
