| Pedestrians at serious risk when drivers are 'permitted' to turn left Posted: 02 Apr 2013 03:26 PM PDT A study to examine driver behavior in permitted left turns has identified what researchers call an "alarming" level of risk to pedestrians crossing the street -- about 4-9 percent of the time, drivers don't even bother to look and see if there are people in the way. The danger to pedestrians, who have a false sense of security, is far higher than had been realized.  |
