Impairment was not a factor in this collision. 

Sgt. Paul Walker with the Abbotsford Police Department says both of yesterday’s incidents involved pedestrians who were struck while within marked crosswalks and had the right of way.

He urges drivers to slow down and watch for pedestrians at intersections and areas with increased foot traffic, especially in low light or changing conditions.

“A moment of inattention can have life‑altering consequences,” said Sgt. Walker. “By staying alert and making safe choices, we can all help reduce the risk of serious injury and keep our roads safer for everyone.”
