Thank you John. I registered just now for the webinar.
I agree that we can show others how to safely cross by example. I'd like to 
form a sub Committee to be in touch with places kids are involved: school, My 
place teen center, etc. Maybe this spring it will come to be.

So the question for this group is, how do we change other peoples' behavior? 
One idea is to promote safe behavior on Facebook. I just searched YouTube for 
"safe crosswalk use" and found all sorts of things. We could post some of them. 
Anyone who would like to can go right ahead. I think the graphic designer who 
co-created CyclingSavvy has also produced some crosswalk safety videos, and 
I've been meaning to reach out to her about that, so I'll do that now.

Thank YOU Again, John !

With the New Year Three Days In,
I would like take this opportunity to point out a " Practice "  that We in 
WSMAC should try, in a Proactive manner, to elicit Positive Change.

That is People Walking or Running Across Wiliam Clarke Drive,  at night, 
usually between 6 - 8 PM,
From the Curve at the Traffic Signal Lights and the Intersection with Captain 
Hartley Way  ( not sure if I have that correct ) to the East Side of the 
Traffic Signal Lights and Crosswalk for Hannaford's.  No Type of Reflective 
strips or flashlight at all, Dark Colored Clothes,  some will wait for a gap in 
traffic or a Red Light, while  The majority just run across spontaneously. When 
you see the person, it's like seeing a Ghost, but in Dark Colored Clothes not a 
White Sheet ! People apparently do NOT like activating the Pedestrian Crosswalk 
Controls to STOP Traffic, or they have had one too many Close Calls at the 
Hannaford 's Access Road so they go in a straight line from Main Street and 
Return.

Thank You.

School based education takes the form of classroom visits, before and after 
school bicycle club rides, or bicycle safety rodeos.

Let's all work to continue this trend in 2019!







Are you driving under the influence of your phone?
9 fatalities and 1,000 injuries occur daily involving distracted drivers.

While there are many distractions on the road today, your mobile phone is one 
of the worst offenders. Take this quiz to test your knowledge about distracted 
driving and your 
phone.<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fr20.rs6.net%2Ftn.jsp%3Ff%3D001uAFJPP4FWa5xB6QZG8OJPPcR7VDWdnALecV3-UlN-vddtHYoDtK2cTBOsS95T5HRIy1jEkH73PpJXFzWRksHQcJ4AMOGBgBXV4r9sVrRKO7n-OK-V59i1ojHvGzR_A7LZm2J3vPI-plykqgeKvNVkqaeTNGuC65BUBHNrL-kdg2B-1izHcIS3OFL3g9K89rr%26c%3DI0upsGiO1yQ1bAffWVk46ZHFt7-qHFN5r8B8NJIgxO8q01lA7Umqfw%3D%3D%26ch%3DfJsWjasu0laY3fvQ_HyOrY08FQQUMoeM6UjWvpyS0WakGzOSCQoObw%3D%3D&data=02%7C01%7Ckatherine.c.clarrage%40maine.gov%7C434e153440e5451ad45008d67239ab3e%7C413fa8ab207d4b629bcdea1a8f2f864e%7C0%7C0%7C636821989352627645&sdata=G96uF4ijTbxJ5aG4VP%2F%2BUccWrQXdYcwcjhIz1QkD%2BNM%3D&reserved=0>

Research shows that text messaging, which had the highest risk of over 20 times 
worse than driving while not using a phone, also had the longest duration of 
eyes-off-road time (4.6-second over a six-second interval). This equates to a 
driver traveling the length of a football field at 55 miles per hour without 
looking at the roadway!
