- Libraries
- Parks
- Shopping areas
75% of pedestrian deaths occur in the dark and 70% occur at non-intersections
* ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA)
PRODUCT STUDY
The Illinois Transportation Institute conducted a nighttime study, comparing the impact of lighting treatments and pedestrian safety countermeasures on driver reaction times at crosswalks. TAPCO’s SafeWalk® Crosswalk Illuminator contributes to highly increased reaction times.

Danville, California
With thousands of vehicles interacting with heavy pedestrian and bicycle traffic at three crossings along a regional trail network, Danville needed integrated crosswalk visibility solutions that would maximize safety without being intrusive — all from one vendor.
"I’d definitely recommend these products to other agencies. They’re really a win-win for everyone.”
– Andrew Dillard
Transportation Manager for Danville, CA
Crosswalk illuminators like SafeWalk® are proven to drastically improve pedestrian safety. According to a study by the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety, drivers were three times more likely to yield to pedestrians at illuminated crosswalks than ones without supplemental lighting — and thirteen times more likely with both RRFBs and crosswalk illumination.
