Hey! We hope your New Year's weekend was amazing.

Starting January 1, there is 1 new California Law that may change your life in 2023. This new law prohibits police officers from stopping pedestrians for certain pedestrian-specific violations, such as jaywalking unless there is an immediate danger of a crash.

While it is an initiative that benefits those who love to walk, it is certain that this law will probably increase pedestrian accidents. The freedom to walk should not be misunderstood and it should not be assumed that drivers must stop.

On the contrary, the freedom to walk demands more attention and responsibility from pedestrians when crossing the street outside the line. But also from drivers!
