In a statement, the department noted that these accidents account for 36.8 percent of all human injury-related traffic incidents in Jordan.

The department emphasized that pedestrian accidents are a shared responsibility. The optimal use of pedestrian crossings and bridges, as well as driver awareness and caution, are considered the first line of defense in reducing these incidents.
