自2009年以来,美国公路上的行人和骑自行车者死亡人数上升了83%,新的研究揭示了这一点。 Pedestrian and cyclist deaths on U.S. roads have surged 83% since 2009, new research reveals.

根据新墨西哥大学Nick Ferenchak的研究, 过去12年来, 在美国公路上行人和骑自行车者死亡人数几乎翻了一番, 自2009年以来上升了83%。 In the past 12 years, deaths of pedestrians and cyclists on US roads have nearly doubled, rising 83% since 2009, according to research by Nick Ferenchak at the University of New Mexico. 虽然汽车死亡人数有所下降,但行人死亡人数,特别是夜间的行人死亡人数却激增。 While car fatalities have decreased, pedestrian deaths, especially at night, have surged. Ferenchak的Pedestrian和自行车安全中心旨在为城市规划者确定工程解决方案,并指出行人与骑自行车者相比缺乏强有力的宣传网络。 Ferenchak's Center for Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety aims to identify engineering solutions for city planners, noting that pedestrians lack strong advocacy networks compared to cyclists.
