Officials say that a white four-door sedan struck the woman head-on. Authorities say that the vehicle was occupied by a woman and a man.

It is critical to follow all driving laws and the conditions of the road as it keeps us and everyone around us safe as we travel to our destination.

Meanwhile, according to the NHTSA, most pedestrian accidents are caused by poor visibility.

So, as pedestrians, wearing bright clothing, using the crosswalk, and using a flashlight at night are just some of the steps we can do to avoid accidents.
