(Portland, OR) -- The number of pedestrians killed in crashes is up across the country, including in Oregon. The website Construction Physics analyzed data and found most pedestrian crashes happen on urban roads at night. In 94 percent of the crashes, driver distraction was not the cause. In 66 percent of the cases, the pedestrian was at fault. From 2014 through 2023 in Oregon, the number of pedestrians killed in crashes doubled to 110. Last month, Portland City Council reaffirmed its Vision Zero plan to reduce pedestrian crashes.
