How many pedestrians have been hit by cars in 91Ô­´´ in recent years? (Matthew Claxton/91Ô­´´ Advance Times)

How many pedestrians are hit by cars every year in 91Ô­´´?

ICBC keeps records of how many collisions involve pedestrians across B.C.

In 91Ô­´´, the numbers for the last five years are:

• 2014 – 85

• 2015 – 74

• 2016 – 96

• 2017 – 81

• 2018 – 91

The average number of pedestrians involved in collisions in 91Ô­´´ every year is 85 over the last five years.

Almost double the number of pedestrians are injured in crashes between October and January as the weather changes and daylight hours decrease, according to ICBC.

A public safety campaign launched this week to try to keep pedestrians safe.
