Overly excited to try out the GoPro that has been lent to me for this project, I went on my first trial run and was able to capture some good examples of pedestrian safety issues. See what I was able to capture on my trial run!

The Rivertowns are based along the hillside of the Hudson River with sharp, blind turns, steeply graded hills, and many distracted and speedy drivers. In addition to my local experiences as a runner, I live along a major roadway with my jewelry studio facing a dangerous intersection that puts pedestrians and motorists lives at peril daily. And I’ve had enough.
