Ridgewood NJ , In an effort to head off more pedestrian accidents the Ridgewood Police Department was out in force all Friday afternoon in an effort to enforce traffic laws in the Central business District or CBD . The Ridgewood Police are looking to make the CBD more pedestrian safe this summer .
NJ law requires cars to stop for a pedestrians in the crosswalk and has been in effect since April. Violations carry a potential for a hefty fine for drivers who do not obey ,yet a rash pedestrian instances the last 3 years raise questions as to whether drivers or pedestrians are paying any attention.
As a driver, I think pedestrians need pay attention. The law is in their favor but physics is against them. a 3 ton car cannot stop on a dime. Pay attention or pay the price.
