Pedestrians need training

With enormous interventions, discipline on our road traffic system gradually moving to a standard.
But the pedestrians still need training and motivation to cross roads and walking through the foot-paths, using foot over-bridge, etc.
Of course more zebra-crossings should be provided on the roads with some effective traffic control system so that pedestrians who are unable to use foot over-bridge due to some health problems like heart diseases can safely and comfortably cross roads. Clean and obstacle-free foot-paths also need to be ensured.
