Pedestrians are some of the most vulnerable people on the road. Oklahoma's roads claimed the lives of 96 pedestrians in 2022. This is a drop from the previous year, but it is still a lot more than a decade ago. In 2022, Oklahoma reported 2.39 pedestrian deaths per 100,000 people. This put the state in 16th place for pedestrian fatalities across the country. In 2021, there were 250 crashes involving pedestrians in Oklahoma City alone. At least 54 of the victims were seriously hurt. Across the city, accidents involving pedestrians are on the decline in the downtown area but going up in the suburbs and along state roads. Pedestrians caused 18 percent of all traffic deaths and three percent of all traffic injuries in the United States in 2022.
