Abstract
Results of the study indicate that the traffic world of the driver and pedestrian is different. While the driver often describes his world as satisfactory, the pedestrian finds it both frightful and reckless. There exists a false feeling of security among driver and pedestrian alike in that the mortality in today's traffic is underestimated, the safety value of the zebra crossing is overestimated, and the law enforcement of the legal authorities is too highly appraised.
