White Cane Safety Day 
The Green Bay Police Department, in coordination with White Cane Safety Day, will have increased patrols for pedestrian safety. Wisconsin’s White Cane Law states “An operator of a vehicle shall stop the vehicle before approaching closer than 10 feet to a pedestrian who is carrying a cane or walking stick which is white in color or white trimmed with red and which is held in an extended or raised position or who is using a dog guide and shall take such precautions as may be necessary to avoid accident or injury to the pedestrian.” It is important for motorists to also recognize that pedestrians have the right of way in marked crosswalks.
The Green Bay Police Department will be focused on enforcing vehicles not yielding to pedestrians in the crosswalk on Friday October 15th.
The point of contact for the event is Traffic Enforcement Unit Officer Knutson.
