Some friends of yours are discussing the issue of accidents between pedestrians and electric cars. Applying human factors to reduce accidents, you make the following suggestion to
A) Create better warnings such as adding some noise to the electric car and developing sensors in the electric cars to sense the presence of an object.
B) Design traffic flow so cars never cross into pedestrian areas.
C) Have pedestrians where sensors that will provide warnings when a car is in the vicinity.
D) Train pedestrians to be better observers of driver behavior in order to anticipate a driver's actions.

Creating better warnings such as adding some noise to the electric car and developing sensors in the electric cars to sense the presence of an object is the best choice for reducing accidents between pedestrians and electric cars as it directly addresses the issue at hand. Designing traffic flow to avoid crossing into pedestrian areas may not always be feasible or practical, and having pedestrians wear sensors could be costly and may not effectively prevent accidents. Training pedestrians to be better observers of driver behavior could also be helpful but may not be as effective as improving the technology of the electric cars themselves.
