SUNSET BEACH, N.C. (WECT) – The Sunset Beach Police Department is testing out a new pilot program to increase the visibility and safety of pedestrians.
Pedestrians are asked to grab a flag from their side of the street before crossing, look both ways and then hold the flag in their hand while crossing the street so drivers can see them more clearly. Once they have crossed the street, they then place their flag in the white flag holder.
The program is being tested at the intersection of 1st and E Main streets.
